Thank you all for your insight. As for the 330-300, what was their final configuration and onboard product ex. First, Business, Premium Economy, PTVs?
Jump to postI know, old news as American took (retired?) their fleet of A332/3s. Where are they stored? Are they being broken up for parts or awaiting possible return to service?
Jump to postIt makes perfect sense for Textron/Cessna. Since they halted further development of the Hemisphere, the Challenger 650 can fill it's role. Then you have the Global 5500, 6500 and 7500 to offer your high-end customers. Lear seems like the casualty in all this. I don't see it sticking around when you ...
Jump to postFor those that have flown this route on the respective carriers, what was your A380 experience (cabin/IFE/flight staff)? I've never flown either airline, but have only heard good things about each carrier. It would be great to hear from someone whose flown both.
Jump to postFrom where are you originating? If you're on the east coast you can fly B6 to JFK or BOS then you'll be guaranteed an A330 on JFK/BOS-HNL. Chicago. While most of you are probably saying, take the UA nonstop, I've done that and just wanted to experience Hawaiian. Guess I'll keep an eye on Google Fli...
Jump to postAs I've been researching flights for a potential trip to Hawaii, I've come across discrepancies with equipment used on their timetable from their website. I don't want to fly narrow-body to HNL, so I'm looking for their 330 routes. It appears LAX/LAS/SAN/SEA/SFO are staying 330s to HNL. While lookin...
Jump to postThis is Chicago. The most corrupt place I've ever seen. You really think the City of Chicago/Dept. of Aviation care what you all think. The winning design will come from the firm that gave a job to someones relative who's unqualified and making $100K+ or who gave the most money to someones campaign....

Jump to postFlying Business Class out of PHL on A332. What services can I expect since it's not a long transatlantic flight? Will there be inflight entertainment?

Jump to postCan anyone tell me what non-stop routes the respective carriers out of O'Hare fly?
Jump to postI too remember reading ETOPS would take 12 mos minimum. Not going to miss this first flight. What does ETOPS certification entail and why does it take 12 months? I don't know the answer. I just remember someone within SW it would take roughly 12 months to get certified. This is what I found on Wiki...
Jump to postActually, it was stated that sale tickets of tickets to Hawaii would commence in 2018....not necessarily flights. I'll have to watch the video again, but I was sure Gary said 2018 Hawaii. I too remember reading ETOPS would take 12 mos minimum. Not going to miss this first flight. Thanks all for you...
Jump to postIf I remember the announcement correctly Southwest will fly to Hawaii in 2018. Current timetable is through August. Next update is in February which opens the schedule into September. If it's not announced in February, that only leaves three months to fly the route in 2018. What is the rumor/specula...

Jump to postVery sad to see a picture in flickr.com of the DTW ceremony. In front of the Queen stands a picture of a DL 741 in old colors. Not a picture of her in the former two Northwest colors. Just extremely sad. I understand you have a business to run, but this is an icon of American. She deserves a fond fa...

Jump to postAnyone have information on whom and when is flying the team/band/alumni charters this year?
Jump to posthttps://www.ebay.com/itm/Airbus-A330-la ... 2224621705?
I think these seats look like US Airways A330 seats. Can anyone confirm this from the pictures?
Anyone know who/when is taking UW Badgers to Miami for Orange Bowl?
How about the band and alumni charters?
[quote="71Zulu"]There will be charter flights next few weekends, last one on 12/31.
Do you know how to get on one of the charters?
So this is it. Unless I missed some grand exit announcement out of Delta, there is just 6 days remaining. My love of aviation started @ DTW watching a NW Orient 747 pull into it's gate. Living in rural Michigan, Northwest and DTW was my connection to the world. Flying those Saab's and Avro's into DT...
Jump to postPicked up a card at the ATL in October about the DTW show. The safety card guy says it's still small. As a huge Northwest fan, I was wondering if anyone on here as been to this show before? If so what was the show like? NW stuff?

Haven't seen anything on airliner route, anyone seen a US carrier operation 767/330 to CUN from US W17/18? I believe DL did 330 MSP-CUN, and possibly AA 330 PHL-CUN.
Jump to postLooks like there are two restaurants on airport property. Anyone have any recommendations on either of the two? One better than the other for watching planes?

While searching FR24 yesterday, I came across N850GT (B748) flying Lynchburg - Dallas (Love Field). I guess LYH runway 7100'x150' is capable of handling this beast. Anyone know what it was doing @ LYH? I captured a screenshot, but apparently can't post here.
Jump to postLooked on this forum, but never saw a feed. BA going to be first airline to offer daily A380 service starting May 8 2018.
Jump to postAs Ron white says you can't fix stupid.
No doubt we've seen the beginning to the end of the SXM experience. Appreciate it folks.
I've tried to keep track of airliner routes for the planned end of 747 flights for the respective carriers. I know there are ones on this site who keep track of these things better than I. I know all United 747 routes are out of SFO. Delta uses DTW & HNL. Can anyone list the routes please? Tryin...
