Jump to postI feel like the service on AA is a mixed bag. When AA is good, they’re really good, but most flights are unremarkable or with minor service issues. I felt the same prior to the US merger (and prior to the TW merger and so on). Never flew LUS, but I always had consistently good service on LHP, albei...

This announcement deserves its own thread. It’s intriguing that this order does not address long-term the 90-150 seat gap in the fleet.

Jump to postZero chance. There is leisure and premium leisure demand from the West Coast to Italy, but a PHX-FCO route would likely be a flop. AA has no problem filling up two flights at DFW to FCO and that's their strategy. The AA network serves FCO well, with nonstops from JFK, ORD, CLT, DFW, and PHL during ...

Jump to postThe value of B6/NK was $3.8B at the time the merger was announced. Currently, the combined value of the carriers is about $2.5-2.6B. How is that $1.2B~ loss in value accounted for?

Wow. They really got TATL.
I was just noticing that the LSG SkyChef building on the west side of the airport is no more. When was it demolished? I assume it was to make way for the 24th Street parking lot? Where is the primary catering facility now?

It seems odd that there is still no official announcement from AA regarding TIJ & PSC. Could this have been prematurely leaked info that PHX got ahold of?
