Pre check has been moved to the alternative security checkpoint. They didn’t even bother removing the signage from the main checkpoint. From what I have gathered talking to some folks in the know, the change came about because Clear was complaining that their customers have to wait to long to be let...
Jump to postVery surprised that they’ve gone for Concord instead of Charlotte and ATL. What’s the chance Delta would kick back? If ATL had a secondary airport they could have flown into they would have picked that, much like USA. Of course there will be subsidies for these two routes. As for a Delta response 0...
Jump to postI would be a bit surprised if ATL did well. I could see decent LF but the yields would concern me. F9 is able to make ATL work from certain cities since they can connect folks. I do think VPS and TYS have a chance to do well. Very surprised that they’ve gone for Concord instead of Charlotte and ATL...

Whats USA?

Just to point out it is 4 new destinations nothing about how many routes.
Jump to postWN needs the MAX 7 to do DEN to Hawaii and to replace the current fleet of 700s that are used on routes that the 800/MAX8 are too big for. WN is digging themselves a hole. It seems like every few months another MAX issue comes up, if another MAX grounding happens…then what does WN do? These MAX7 iss...
Jump to postGreat to see Breeze add a dozen of more flights to RDU. Their main goal should be is serving markets that the legacies don't fly. MCI and PDX are one of them. Hell, DSM too! Does seem like MCI would have some routes that would work. Unless they are worried about once they start WN would come in and...
Jump to postWhy did Sliver get rid of the 340's? I really think this was a painful move for the airline when going from 34 seats to 70 all of a sudden. Could they opt to bring back some of the 340's on smaller markets? Makes me sad to see them struggle financially. I also wonder if they might consider opening ...
Jump to postDAB is years away from Southwest service. United would be the most likely add to DAB but I would not be willing to bet on that. Avelo will maintain service unless they add flights to a new bases. WN is probably never going to DAB. If they were, they would have been one of the new station announceme...
Jump to postHopefully they can turn things around. They need to focus on EYW, connections, codeshare flights. Build EYW up with additional Southeast markets, build a better connecting operation in MCO and FLL, strengthen their codeshare with B6. They could act as a large regional feeder for B6 in MCO, FLL, and ...

I don’t think PIT will have any adds in 2024. Maybe some announcements for when the new terminal opens. 2024 will be the year of heavy construction.

Jump to postLAL will be a success for Avelo. For those that follow closely, XP does not do long term agreements….so a 15 deal is a massive commitment for XP. LAL will become the Central Florida Base.

Jump to postWith Avelo signing a 15 year agreement LAL will become their Central Florida hub. I would look for a hanger to be built in LAL for MX work.

Jump to postJust went through TSA and CLEAR lanes are in place, testing is happening. They said it rolls out Monday. The Pre lines were long again, so I'm happy this is finally coming to PIT. I know I'm probably in the minority here, but nothing is more annoying than being next in line at precheck and then hav...

Jump to postAugust 24 compared to August 23 CUN will see a reduction. International across the board takes a hit beyond seasonal cuts.
Lots of cuts in August, most seasonal but some that was weekend only have been cut.
I said long ago Avelo will serve LAL. There is rumor internally that the MCO base will move to LAL. Personally I don’t think they would move the base. If they did move the base flying would remain to HVN and ILG from MCO.
Jump to postGot word that the SJU bookings out of HVN are starting out strong. That is a good thing! Unfortunately haven’t gotten word on the ILG bookings yet.

The additions will be measured, look for cities with growing populations or near major population center with little or no air service or popular vacation destinations.

Jump to postI am curious what the thoughts on WN going into Alaska and running a string of thru flights (what WN is known for and does well) in the smaller cities connecting back to ANC and the lower 48. It would compete head on with Alaska Airlines but frequencies and certainly lower fares could shave a chunk ...
Jump to postI have flown out of PIT a few times over the past month and noticed that most store and places to eat are closed, TGI Friday closes this month (found out talking with one of the employees), everything closes promptly at 8pm regardless of how many flights leave after that (also applies to most of TSA...
Jump to postWhat I am curious about is the fact that it does not appear that LATAM is operating any flights out of MCO right now.

Jump to postWithout a doubt the RSW base is suspended with more than likely the only route remaining being too HVN. It would be an unfortunate but smart move. ILG appears to be the newest base with a focus on service to Florida markets (you won't be flying to the Midwest or other Northeast cities from here). Gi...

Jump to postI hope Avelo will connect their cities in the east with cities out west. That would be a huge money maker having service twice a week to Los Angeles but I understand if they did that, they'd have to offer conveniences like B. O. B. snack boxes. There will not be transcon for a while. But they will ...
