Also a rumour doing the rounds that a certain Middle Eastern carrier, whose state has an ‘interest’ in LHR, hasn’t been asked to reduce their schedules.
Jump to postTo me it is quote clear. If all "regular" passengers decided not to fly, the flight would not go. Therefor, every "regular" passengers carries a certain amount of impact. Even if nonrev was totally forbidden, the above mentioned flights would still operate. So the only impact a ...
Jump to postASEAN/EU Open Skies agreement. Interested about the section concerning ‘14 fpw either via or beyond a third country’?

Jump to postYou occasionally find odd seat numbering conventions. Skipping row 13 is fairly common. I recently found some old TW boarding passes that weren't alpha-numeric, but purely numeric eg 4-06, that would be far more confusing. I actually like the numbering convention on CX, as mentioned above it is clea...
Jump to postNot a news story, really. Does remind me of a situation where a friend and his girlfriend were flying back sub-load.

Jump to postMost airlines have what is known as an SPA (special prorate agreement) in place with each other, whereby the amount is pre-agreed for selling a sector, in a certain booking class, on a certain route. Of course it is possible to sell (almost) anyone's flights on your paper. Where there is no SPA in p...

Jump to postSurely this is just a way of being able to operate Trans-Atlantic services ex. Europe and to be able to work the intra-European market?

Jump to postThanks all. By history, i meant the preconception about Russian airlines, in general, based on previous safety issues with other airlines, mainly Aeroflot historically.

Jump to postI was just wondering what the general consensus was regarding Transaero, the Russian airline?
