Re: Your most exciting aircraft swaps

My most exciting aircraft swap was back in 2013 flying on KLM685 from AMS to MEX, the flight was on a 747 Combi but I believe the combi plane went tech and was swap for a full pax 747 registration PH-BFN “City of Nairobi”, resulting in plenty of open seats at the back. I got an empty row for myself.

Re: Mexico considers allowing domestic cabotage

This crazy stupid idea from this dumb president has more to do with increase traffic at the new airport because of the low number of operations from there. He wants to force more airlines in the AIFA no matter what.

I don’t think Mexico will regain its Category 1 anytime soon, but as this route was approved before loosing the category I don’t think it’s necessary to be Category 1 for resuming a suspended route.
