Anyone have any insight into how AF’s DEN-CDG is doing? If it’s doing well and sticks around I suspect we will see UA jump in sooner rather than later. I’m not sure we ever got an answer to your question about how well AF’s DEN flight is performing? I can’t find load info or anything on its specifi...
Jump to postQuick question, and pardon me if this has been discussed/answered, but how is AF doing on their DEN flight? I've been curious about this since launch and I haven't been able to get good info on it. Maybe summertime vacationers fill the plane during the seasonal routing but I'm curious if the flight ...
Jump to postAgreed, LH has been around in DFW for a long time but the past few years have been a bit shaky. Although this is high summer season so things are always going to spike, 96% is still fantastic load factor, even with a margin of error of a few points. I just hope LH can regain strength year-round to ...
Jump to postim not so surprised TBH. i think LH should serve MUC by its own since IAH is a smaller market than the other UA hubs and most of the pax make a connection in FRA(although connecting at MUC is way more convenient!). If the IAH-MUC market is to be served at all, UA has the most suitable (i.e. smalles...
Jump to postHey, I'm headed to FRA on business in a few months and could use some advice on whether LX is worth 5-6 extra hours of transit pain, DEN-ORD-ZRH-FRA (on A333 and other assorted aircraft) over a simple DEN-FRA nonstop on LH 744? This might sound silly but I've always kind of wanted to fly on LX. What...

Jump to postIt's also different to rank an airline on your experience in First class as opposed to being in cattle class, especially if you fly Economy on an airline you normally don't fly (and thus have no status with).
