No, there's no published , design frozen, financially committed to plan. That in no way excludes the possibility of there being a plan for Term F. Or the fact the decision is already made. And there is also the possibility there isn't, the article indicated that the plan was still under negotiation...
Jump to postWhat are the largest hubs in the world by cities served and how many cities are served?
My guesses:
IST---Turkish
FRA---Lufthansa
DFW---AA
ATL---DL
CDG---AF
Safe to say that AA serves more cities out of DFW than DL at ATL? However, Delta has the frequency and volume in ATL.

Correct me anyone if i'm wrong but I believe Charlotte, Miami and Phoenix.
We know AA is CLT, DL is ATL, and UA is DEN. What about WN? DEN is not UA’s most profitable station. It is their most profitable hub. Scott Kirby announced that earlier this year. WN does not have hubs, they have large stations and small stations. WN employees do not call MDW, BWI, DEN, LAS, etc hu...

Jump to postI remember flying into LGB in the 90s on AA from DFW. The only other commercial aircraft I saw was an HP 737-300 taking off.
Jump to postThe TRIP program was already late and way over budget. I seriously doubt AA is willing to invest tons more money to create a central terminal complex and then basically gut the terminals that they (DFW) spent billions of dollars renovating just a few years ago.

IF AA were to add service to DAL it would probably be ORD, CLT, LGA, big maybe for DCA and LAX. CR7s, CR9s, or E75s most likely.

Jump to postNarrow Body: Boeing 757 or MD80
Widebody: tie between L1011 and 747
What airport is that in the picture at the top of the article. There's an AA MD80 and 738. Korean Air 777 parked in the background.
Nevermind, I believe it is ORD from a different angle.
AA has tried, and tried and tried to make money in Asia outside of Japan and the yields just aren't there. Meanwhile they are printing money on their flights to Argentina/Chile... Adam Any idea why AA hasn't tried ORD-EZE/GRU? They did try ORD-EZE like 10 years ago? It did not work out so well.
Jump to postAre there any noticeable differences between the MD88 and MD90 for a passenger? I've flown on the 82, 83, and 88. Never have flown on the 90, closest I've been to a 90 is unloading baggage from one.
Jump to postoosnowrat wrote:How does that compare to DGS, United Ground Express and McGee?
AA is CLT
DL is LGA?
UA is SFO?
WN is MDW or DAL?
AA is the only one I know for sure. What are actualy UA, DL, and WN's most profitable hubs/operating bases?
Then they need to adjust their arrival and departure times from ATL to the upper Northeast. You can't have it both ways pad arrival times for better onetime performance and then claim a city is 2 hours away and schedule 2.5 hours or 3.00 flying time. Doesn't work like that Seems to work just great....

Don't get why the 757 has so many fans on A.net. It is the worst selling jetliner family ever built by Boeing. It looks different to most modern jets so maybe that's it.
