July numbers are fantastic! All 6 flights I took had every seat full out of the springs in July! Also, why is everyone infatuated with southwest at cos? Look at how United responded! We had mainline to den and ord on ua! Brought in lots of competition. And the prices out of the springs have been gre...
Jump to postTo bring this back around, so what's going on at BZN with fuel issues?? Seems to crimp their new growth if there are these big of issues.
Jump to postLooks like a planned diversion. Can a A321 not make BZN to ATL in the summer non-stop.

Missoula is a challenging airport to land it, coming in through mountains. Even “minor” weather can result in diversions.
The bus often provides non-stop service from geg-mso.
Passenger 737’s would be put their existing flying at risk. That’s probably a no.
Cargo though wouldn’t.
Also, remember the 2003 airliners rumor that Skywest was flying 717’s for delta.....
People practically had he paintshop applying the livery according to a.net

Fairbank, Rapid City, Augusta seem like the big winners.
Thoughts?
Prior to the recent battles for crews at the regional level, these outstations were really the only chance for regional crews to afford to live where they were based. Even with the recent big bonus’s for regional pilots, hard to afford to live in NYC, Chicago, or dc. Much easier to afford day, boi, ...

Jump to postCOS-PHX on AA is a big hole while I believe COS-MSP on DL is a good opportunity for DL to resume service on. If places like LBB and AMA can support daily PHX service, I'd imagine COS could as well. Heck I'd even be willing to trade the ORD flights for PHX since you can practically get everywhere fr...

This is silly that horizon operated the route anyways. OO crew base and Mtx operations at COS, why would you assign qx the route???

Airlines with 777, the pilots have a small amount of cross training, so I assume they are just doing 777 runs, but what about like LOT pilots?
Ok, rumors are just that, but this one has at least one fact to it. I have several buddies who were on furlough from Mesa, we keep in contact regularly. None of them were close to the top of the recall list (one was a couple hundred below me, and I just gave up and went into teaching) 3 of them got ...
