I'll be honest, I was expecting a much more ambitious plan when it came to terminal expansion. From what I gather, the terminal experience is essentially staying as is, with the exception of adding a satellite concourse north of the Aeroquay.
Jump to postThis is great and badly needed, however, they will also need to start thinking about how to improve and expand terminal capacity as well. It is my understanding that the current terminal has a capacity of around 25 million passengers per year (or is it 20 million?) and they set to surpass that numb...

Given the impressive range of the A321XLR, it appears feasible for nonstop flights from Orlando MCO to reach destinations in extreme western Europe such as Dublin DUB and Shannon SNN.

Jump to postI’ve never flown through YUL. Why is it such a mess? I have heard that the connection from domestic airlines o international is basically stupid. Some sort of gates but no real separation, narrow terminal. I don’t understand the walking to the terminal concept or reasons. The airport was not built ...

Air Transat used A-321's. I imagine these routes will be operated daily which would make up for the reduced seat capacity, iirc TS wa...

The reason for low AA Aus yields was a very strong WN and that dynamic hasn’t changed nor has WN’s very strong relationship with the austin airport.

Jump to postOh, isn't it just delightful how everyone's chattering about this WestJet and Porter Airlines merger as if it's already set in stone? Because, you know, clearly we should all jump on board and discuss it as if it's a guaranteed future reality. How wonderfully naive of us all.

Jump to postFair enough. In any case, Montreal Metropolitan Airport seems like a relatively creative name.
I wonder if they'll ever lift the ban on widebodies and international flights.
What is this "MET" thing they are going on about? It isn't the airport code, which is YHU, or an acronym of Montreal Metropolitan Airport in either French or English. They ought to drop whatever it is they are trying there. That's how YHU has decided to brand themselves. I assume that the...
