When did DL start flying 220s to ATL? I was there today and saw one in line for takeoff.
Jump to post73J IFC - back in service, 3945 to enter this morning. That will leave 2 73Js in service with no IFC (3949, 3956).

Jump to postDSM-LAS is also back to daily. DSM now has 6 daily flights, this is the most flights we’ve ever had on WN.

Jump to postMaybe they are trying to build up MIA more. Always made sense for their network. Delta has publicly referred to MIA as a hub. This is all part of the continued build up and investment in LATAM. That's a big negative, DL referred to MIA as a gateway to feed LATAM, but not a hub in anyway or form. Th...
Jump to postTo your Infrastructure Points, HVN may have hit a milestone today. They’re listing all parking lots full and their State St Garage Shuttle lot as full.

Jump to postSo, what does this do to N941DB (38688/4414, ex PK-LBG), which was expected to be ship 3941? Does it get a new ship #? Yes, https://registry.faa.gov/AircraftInquiry/Search/NNumberResult?nNumberTxt=N941DB shows that it has a pending registration number change to N945DZ. So Ship # will be 3945. Inter...
Jump to postMaybe I missed it, will these all be on 73G or will they finally base some 738s out east with this expansion? They’ll have enough routes that don’t touch HVN so they might be able to get away with basing a 738 or two at MCO.

Tue/Wed flights in June from HVN to BWI/MDW/RDU were cancelled "due to the rapid increase in jet fuel prices." Didn't check the pure leisure routes. Not a good start. They aren’t the only airline cutting capacity due to rising fuel prices so I wouldn’t read too much into this. True, but i...

BUR-GEG is now bookable on their website. Looks like twice a week, Saturdays and Wednesdays.
Jump to postI think Avelo should completely pull out of BUR. Focus on LAS routes as well as HVN and an east coast operation. I people keep saying this, but has BUR been a total failure for Avelo? Are any of their routes successful there? How many 73Gs are they up to now? How many will they need to support thei...

I'd think moving IND-LAX to SNA would be a better use of the slot with AA and Delta on IND-LAX Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk People said the same about DSM-PDX last year and they've increased frequency on it to 3x weekly this summer. They've increased DSM-LAX to 3x weekly thi...

Jump to postIt's a fare sale. 50% off 50 days of fall travel.
Jump to postrj777 wrote:Man. it's still in the old livery....
This is the fall extension which is a pretty slow travel season. And like @ishrion, they just announced a bunch of new routes. Why do people always assume these schedule extensions are going to be cosmic?
Jump to postIt looks like we’re 2 days from the first WN MAX-8 flights since the grounding. Does anyone know when (if not already on the 11th) their entire MAX8 fleet will receive the required mods and return to service? Have they resumed deliveries of MAX8 aircraft?
Jump to postWhile some of these new cities may get switched to seasonal and 1 or 2 might close for some reason, I think it would be difficult for WN to close several. WN does not like to close cities (although a few have happened). Comparing WN of 25 years ago to today is pointless. Yes, back then WN didn't &q...
Jump to postWould love to see an extra small market approach. Might be my only hope to see them at CID. They've been - mostly - running hard in the opposite direction for the past 15 years. DEN, PHL, IAD, BOS, SFO, LGA, ATL, IAH, ORD.... Paying $$$ to make the 717s go away. Persistently upgauging with every ne...
Jump to postBZN is a good add. Lot of growth there and about time they get more service. Where do you see that they’re adding BZN? There was a separate thread about it but it disappeared. It’s weird that we’re allowed to have a separate thread about NK adding MKE but we have to bury discussion of WN adding BZN...

Jump to postI see they added back DSM-PHX 6x weekly from mid March-April.
Jump to postI miss the interactive route map on their website.
Jump to postAt max capacity, how many flights can WN operate out of DAL? Is there really that much room for growth there, even with the reduced Covid schedule?
Jump to postAbsent some incredible growth spurt in those markets, WN is never going to serve places like MLU, GTR, INL, CID, GJT, DRT, SGU, BGM, SCE, IPT, ALW, etc. Those will remain the province of the actual legacy carriers. WN adding service to GJT might be a possibility if WN is successful on the DEN-HDN/M...
