Woah. After using the legacy system for the last 20 years, this is kind of a shock.
Any idea how to access the OIS main menu items, specifically the East/West directory (the info on the left side of the legacy system) in the new site?

SFO-SIN-SFO rarely is weight restricted and we don't block seats from inventory. If for whatever reason it was, freight will be cut to the amount needed. Passengers will be the last thing cut, which has been none to my knowledge. Assuming normal operations of course. (No MEL restrictions, or major r...

Jump to postAnyone know the story behind this airplane that's looks to be in the grass just north of the fence at IAH? Old 737 it looks like? North end, other side of runway 09/27. First time I've seen it.

Jump to postHere's the situation. RR isn't letting go of the engine contract. Airbus was willing to work with us. Management doesn't want this plane. At all.

Jump to postMy "push-back" is all the lies that have been told on this thread about technical reasons why the flight cannot go from Pakistan Airspace closures, 77W not having the performance, FAR regulations would be busted, or crew duty limits. All of this has been debunked as being false. If they h...
Jump to postWow that flight actually has passengers on it. If they wanted to AVOID Iranian airspace they could have flown via Saudi Arabia/Egyptian airspace into Greek EU airspace and overnight in FRA/MUC instead of HNL. That would have been MUCH faster. I was wondering that too. The 777 has the legs to get an...

Jump to postI find it mind-numbing that so many folks on here seem to think that professional network planners haven't considered all possible avenues (running algorithms with data feed, as an example) to make a flight be viable. It is what it is. I have been living and breathing this stuff for my entire caree...
Jump to postDitto. It's a 777-300ER on the route. Can't it fly above or below Iranian airspace to get to India? I would think it has the range to do so. I've always been curious about how EWR-BOM performs considering how DL and AA both failed in India and then CO stuck around in the Mid-2000s. Maybe too many s...
Jump to postCould they sub in an alternate type (788?) that might have the legs to make the flight without overflying Iran or Pakistan? I realize that it would mean reduced capacity, but may be preferable to canceling the route altogether. Looking at the Great Circle routing, EWR-RUH-BOM (which overflies neith...

UA really needs to just sub in 789 for the India routes. It should be able to operate nonstop both ways.
