But is it ...
Jump to postYikes. What could they have hit to do that kind of damage? Surely a bird, even a big one, wouldn’t cause that.
The video of the landing from the same profile also shows a no flaps landing. Good thing DEN has long runways!
COS is on the route map but isn’t bookable. Is this just because they don’t know when it will return or is it gone for good and the route map is wrong?
Jump to postCOS has already renovated the check-in and security screening areas. Gate areas have started to get renovated and I believe should be finished this year. They released some photos of renovated restrooms today. Much nicer than our larger neighbor to the north.
Jump to postJust out of curiosity, does anyone know what it takes to keep DIA open during a typical snowstorm (not a blizzard or one off heavy storm)? At minimum two 12,000 ft runways, associated taxiways and the ramps? And what is the snowfall rate that they just say it isn’t worth it? I know there can be a lo...
Jump to postWas really hoping we'd finally get CLT-COS, especially considering the other mountain summer adds...
Jump to postWow! Was not expecting BWI-COS. I thought the next add was going to be HOU-COS going daily. An east coast destination has been at the top of the airport’s list so good win for the team over there.
Jump to postI don't think there's that many more places WN can take a successful stab at without messing with DEN. MCO, TPA, BNA, and maybe BWI are three places I think WN would go to next. Avelo has a hub in MCO as well as RDU and HVN, no one is ever going to fly from COS to those places except probably MCO o...
Jump to postThat represents a load factor of 89%. Excellent for their first month. COS-Southern California was a significant untapped market after the only nonstop carrier on the route, United Express, dropped LAX. I know WN has just added COS-LGB, but this was too good an opportunity for Avelo to pass up. No ...
Jump to postPer an article in the Colorado Springs newspaper, Avelo carried over 1200 passengers out of the airport in June. I think that comes out to around 133 passengers per departure.
Jump to postSAN & SEA are flown by OW partner AS, with limited slots I don't think AA will add those. AA without the NEA still has its issue if you many slots to just right size as a very important outstation and not enough for a hub. A lot depends on the decision of longhaul routes, but AA would need to r...
Jump to postBefore I go jumping down the the United CEO's throat, can I ask what was happening in Denver that required him to charter a jet from Teterboro? Unclear. I haven't read any specific reason - business, personal, or otherwise. I thought there was a well publicized story a few years ago that Kirby made...
Jump to postNot sure why it was left off the release but COS-HOU will be going Sunday only starting Jan. 14.
Jump to postLooks like COS-SAT/HOU/SAN all return for the holidays. I’m curious if these will be the next daily destinations out of COS once WN has the planes to expand. Thanks for posting this, OKC' . (I was going to search for this but hadn't gotten it done yet.) Looks like COS-SAN is just operating a few ra...

Jump to postJAC should definitely be added. If Southwest added BZN, than JAC can definitely be served. BZN had 1133K passenger arrivals for the 12 months ending 1/2023, per RITA BTS Transtats. JAC had 396K. Do you routinely use any tools that look at airport volume or PDEWs on specific city-pairs? https://www....
Jump to postWhy doesn't COS have more service from AA? Seems like it could be beneficial to have at least one daily flight to somewhere besides DFW. PHX? ORD? CLT? Last summer they were looking at the prospect of adding CLT-COS but it never went beyond discussions. PHX was launched in S19 and went up to 3 dail...
Jump to postLooks like SY has extended its seasonal COS service to November 23. Although it gets cut to 1x weekly after Labor Day. Not sure if COS is really destination that can work once per week but we’ll see…

This is good news. Hopefully the start of something bigger for Avelo in COS. Should be fun to watch them go up against WN to SoCal. Wonder if WN will add a BUR flight now or just stick with LGB.
Jump to postCOS has a new carrier announcement tomorrow Let the guessing begin! This was mentioned in the BRO thread but thought it deserved its own. I’m guess Avelo but not sure where to. Maybe BUR but not sure if they want to go up against WN’s new LBG service. https://twitter.com/cosairport/status/1628418426...

Jump to postI could see Breeze doing well out of cities in the middle of the country that would be relatively in the middle of all of their east and west coast destinations, like ICT and COS. I think routes like ICT-LAX/MCO/LAS and COS-LAX/MCO could do really well. I think Breeze could do well in COS if they w...
Jump to postLgb-COS/ELP new? I don’t remember seeing them but They backfill into previous updates though. This is absolutely fantastic news for COS. Since WN started service here, the LA basin has been at the top of the wish list for service on WN. Even more so since UA discontinued LAX. Personally I thought w...
Jump to postJust read AA will be moving at DEN. They'll have gates C30, C32, C34, C36 and C38 effective midnight. While I'll miss the very-convenient A gates (bridge > train), I won't complain about AA being next to Root Down, which is my favorite airport restaurant in the country DEN is playing musical chairs...
Jump to postBeen following JonNYC’s coverage of this all day. Definitely could’ve been a bad situation. I did see DL1943 was delayed until this morning so I’m guessing there was an aircraft issue after the RTO. Will be interesting to hear the sequence of events once the tapes are available.
Jump to postUnconfirmed reports that he was sucked into one of the engines. A very horrifying accident. RIP to the worker. Ugh…. Cannot imagine…. Was only a few hundred feet away from the Airlink incident at Memphis many years ago. It is why I am so hard on the newbies about ramp safety. Speaking of training a...
Jump to postFrom reading APC, it seems one major contributing factor is that some Jr(??) VP in Denver sent out a memo REQUIRING the ramp to be available for mandatory overtime, and that sick excuses had to be IN PERSON, not from televisits. But this goes against Colorado State Law regarding Medical Leave while...
Jump to postI’m not a big AS follower but saw a job posting for a station manager in OKC. I was curious if a place like OKC that only has one flight per day warranted a station manager in AS’s view or if this might be an indication of more coming? I only ask because I’ve seen at AA where they have a station man...
Jump to postJust heard on the news here in COS that WN has cancelled all flights in/out of COS through Friday. Not seeing a source on the stations website yet but wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the case.
Jump to postAny chance we could see new destinations on AA from COS? Surprising that for as large of a city as it is, they only serve DFW. Maybe PHX? Or CLT on a 319? I’d say the only chance might be ORD coming back once Air Wisconsin gets going. I believe it was Vasu who said last year that AA was satisfied w...
Jump to postWasn’t sure if DL was going to respond to SY, especially with them only being 2x weekly. Glad to see this for the summer. Just goes to show the airlines recognize there’s a market in COS but continue to want to funnel as many passengers through DEN as possible.
Jump to postJust out of curiosity: for long-haul international flights from northern routes (i.e., not from southern routes) heading to DFW, what is usually listed as their alternate? Would if have to do with the general routing of an inbound flight? Or is there generally a standard alternate? I'm wondering ho...
Jump to postDidn’t feel it needed a seperate thread but UA is suspending COS-LAX. Yet another loss for COS. It’s being attributed to pilot shortage according to the airport director…
I feel like this would be a prime opportunity for Avelo to try COS-BUR service.
As a COS resident, here is the honest truth… Airport Director Greg Phillips has to be fired. He has been at the helm during the most opportunistic time in the history of COS and even though WN started flights here, he has truly been unable to capitalize on the ability of this airport to serve this r...

Jump to postNot major but good news for us here in COS. SLC-COS being upgraded from a CR2 to E75 in November.
Now if we can just get our ATL flight back…
Now, don't get me started about UA check-in. It's atrocious. Only use checkin when checking bags, but hate having to wait and they have all those UA agents standing there doing nothing while ABM/G2 has one person tagging and accepting the bags. Check-in online and drop bags off at the remote statio...
Jump to postSince the slots are use-them-or-lose-them, it seems DL has a bunch of LGA domestic slots they feel they need to use… and can’t figure out where to best send the planes. So it’s almost like a game of trying to figure out which LGA route is the lesser loser. To be clear, I wish them success and obvio...
Jump to postJust noticed DL added LGA-OKC with a YX E75 but can’t tell when it started. Going up against AA on this route who started it last year. Good for OKC to get more NYC service. Be interesting if UA brings back EWR-OKC now too.

Jump to postATL-COS returning daily on August 8 with an A320. Been waiting a long time for this one to come back.
Jump to postJLN was adamant to get rid of AA for dropping ORD due to the pandemic. Guess they’d like to have those DFW flights back about now… And AA had grown that service to sometimes having 3x E75’s.
Jump to postNot necessarily, a few of their initial BUR routes still seem to be going strong. I think the real issue is that BUR hasn't been as good at serving the entire LA area as XP expected. They'd be better off slimming down the operation and focusing on cities with demand for service into Hollywood/the B...
