This one is for the old timers out there like myself. In the late 1970's and 1980s I recall arriving at SJU at about 0400 having taken one of the red-eyes from the NYC area. Every time I would leave the SJU airport at that hour I would notice what looked like 12-15 Eastern L10-11s lined up in order...

Jump to postCOVID-19 is a very convenient excuse. Having worked 30+ years in the airline industry, it would be foolish to believe otherwise.

Jump to post“PRINAIR falsa” or “Fake Prinair”. Well, we have Piedmont falsa, Republic falsa, Allegheny falsa, PSA falsa, Eastern falsa x2, Pan Am falsa x4, Olympic falsa, heck even Lufthansa and British Airways are falsa since there were two airlines with those names before the two current ones!... :lol: there...
Jump to postSave your excitement. It should be called “PRINAIR falsa” or “Fake Prinair”. It is just another Dominican pipe dream. It is not a “boricua” company. Also, there was another reincarnation of PRINAIR a few years ago. It was based at Isla Grande airport. Another venerable airline name and logo will be ...
Jump to postESAN service is simply a scam. Airlines should eliminate this service completely. They should only be allowed to fly following standard pet policies.

Jump to postAir Wisconsin has its home base in Appleton, not in Green Bay.
Jump to postThe airline industry should simply eliminate these services. If you’re that disabled then it should be mandatory that you travel with a companion. The airline will be glad to provide a wheelchair but it should not be responsible for your needs. Also, the unaccompanied minor service needs to stop, ch...
Jump to postI have had IAM representation a few times at previous employers... Personally I feel robbed of hard earned cash from an union that fails to perform what it promises to do.

Jump to postAs a former EASTERN and SYSTEM ONE employee I’ll add that it was definitely the IAM what destroyed Eastern.
I hope that Charlie Bryan is roasting in hell.
The lower deck was advertised as the “Panorama Deck” on the MD11.
I have a picture of an ad for it. It would have had windows hence the marketing name.
Oh the drama! What makes this posting and the attached article so ridiculously entertaining is the fact that some people are so dramatically hurt just because the airline did not have some totally wasteful over the top celebraron for the inaugural flight. Do we need to introduce “airport safety zone...
Jump to postIt's hilariously entertaining to see how so many keep posting without being privy to the facts on this matter. If the ticket was created on the AC system then it is the responsibility of the issuing carrier to verify that rules and conditions required for travel are enforced. United's system will ad...
Jump to postObviously the parent is at fault. Only a moron would make a last minute booking change and expect to find seats together. The airline did try to seat them together but unfortunately there weren't any seats available. In that case it is the responsibility of the parent to ask others if they are willi...
Jump to postI find it hilarious how many have commented on this issue based on their feelings while displaying their lack of any knowledge of actual airline operations. Also, many join the airline bashing crowd simply because it's the latest trend on social media. Simply pathetic. What's makes this whole situat...
Jump to postAlso, Continental operated ELP-MEX which was also operated by Aerolíneas Azteca years after Continental dropped the route.
Jump to postSeriously doubt this happened as described. This is clearly another case of someone with a false sense of celebrity expecting others to bow to their ego driven actions. It's not like this man or his wife have performed any worthwhile action in their lives to be considered celebrities.

Jump to postI find it hilarious how some still insist that this was an embarrassment to Delta, City of Atlanta and the U.S.A. It was not. Airports choose how to manage their assets accordingly.
