Jump to postWho said it they’ll add BOG to their existing flight? DXB-MIA-DXB would be a sole flight and MIA would get a second flight from EK. Whether it’s just a stopover for fuel with no pax or fifth freedom has yet to be seen. But it’s not going to be a one flight like you assume. Also, look at the post I ...
Jump to postYour history of speculating also includes claiming Qatar Airways and Royal Air Maroc were doing horrible at Miami and would never resume service, and that Emirates would never begin service to Miami, so nobody is putting much weight on that speculation. Miami to the Middle East/Africa region is a m...
Jump to postOn a separate note - I swore I recalled as we were all waiting for the initial route announcements that ECP was a station they were hiring for (ground crew, flight attendants, etc). Am I going crazy or did they just abandon the whole Panama City idea?
Jump to postBetter off to go via BCN if possible or Malaga or Valencia . USA would be a nightmare I wound agree. I’m speculating here but my sense is that MIA is turning out to be weak for EK (just like FLL was) even though cruises are running again and they’re looking for any possible way to make the MIA rout...
Jump to postWill the new 220's go to transcon routes (CHS-LAX)? Curious what US routes the 220s will be on? Thanks. This particular route seems logical, but also means it goes up against established B6 which has been flying CHS-LAX with 320’s for a while now and also has 220’s to match if it wanted. I think Br...

Jump to postIn the current climate and foreseeable future IND simply doesn’t warrant a non-stop to Europe. Frankly its greatest hope would be an FI 73M8 2-3x weekly to KEF. Anything else is a pipe dream IMO until mid decade or later. *Unless* the city throws millions at BA to LHR or DL back to CDG or starting A...

Jump to postSad. Good corporate aviation is pretty-darn safe, but it just isn't as safe as commercial. And it's not like they don't have First Class on flights between the DR and MIA. Well they were going to MCO not MIA…..so there’s that. Maybe no airlines have a non-stop DR-MCO with First Class?? “ The plane,...
Jump to postWow did not see AA doing BOS-SDF/MEM. Also weekly PNS, YHZ, and return of a weekly TVC. B6 loads AVL and YVR both daily and seasonal. AVL on E190 and YVR on A220.

Jump to postI’ve looked on Google flights at various dates in May, June and July and don’t see an A380 loaded for any BA flights. Am I missing something or did they scrap plans?

Jump to postI was scheduled to fly back to the US on Wednesday (8th Dec) on Air France. It was a 00:40am departure from CPT-CDG that connected to a 13:15 departure also on 8th December arriving BOS 15:35. Yesterday, I received both an SMS text and email from AF stating “due to operational changes you’ve been re...

I’m hoping someone with a little more knowledge of AF’s policies can help me here. I understand over the past weekend the French government blocked all AF flights to South Africa (JNB & CPT) for 48-hours. Today, I see AF990 (CDG-JNB) is operating, however, tomorrow both AF CDG-JNB & CPT are ...
Jump to postBooked to fly US-CPT via CDG on AF in a few days. It’s interesting that yesterday and today’s AF CDG-JNB/CPT were cancelled, but KL AMS-JNB/CPT are operating as normal. Given AF/KL is one group/company are the AF cancellations French government mandated? Not sure whether I should be planning to go o...

BA and KLM but not that far. KLM uses theirs to LAX and SFO BA to SEA or DFW No, BA uses theirs to BOS & DFW. Ju...
Jump to postI definitely understand why ORD or JFK would likely be the choice for AA to BOM. But one question I have is - With AA’s tie up with B6 in BOS and then Indigo on the India side why is BOS not being considered for a DEL or BOM service? There’s a large local market, big tech and health/medical communit...

Jump to postAbsolutely not. MIACDG has always been bookable at some point on AA. Stop making things up. They did keep pushing back the restart. That compared to MIAMXP on AA which has been permanently discontinued, although a relaunch should be announced soon. Google Flights isn’t picking up El Al’s ORD fights...

Jump to postNo non-stop service to SLC from large markets East like IND, CMH, CLE, PIT, JAX, etc is lacking. Pretty good is really stretching it. Only hubs and major markets (DC, BOS, NYC) really have DL service to SLC. The two exceptions are CLT & RDU. CLE, IND CMH, PIT are all either operating or resumin...

Jump to postEl Al discontinued Boston. Never resumed post-COVID and nothing in GDS. Technically it’s suspended not discontinued.

Even without KEF how will DL find room at terminal A when all of those flights are either 76W/764 or A330’s?
Basically any mid-large markets without SLC service (JAX, CHS, RIC, SDF, IND, etc). Why double connect when all of those cities can single connect on AA via DFW?

Jump to postNot disputing any of your arguments, but I'd still like to see more from AS.

Jump to postYou're probably right but I feel it's a bit of a missed opportunity. I think they could quite easily get to what they have in AUS, flying to pretty much all their existing hubs and focus cities.

Jump to postThese flights leave me scratching my head. In normal times I have no doubt ARN-MIA, ARN-LAX, ARN-JFK would work with A350's.
