Is there any way of seeing red-eye vs. non red-eye profitability in the U.S.?
Jump to postI don't understand what the problem with Air Canada is. It is a cosy duopoly in a rich nation. From the friends I have, I also hear YUL to GRU is loss making ego route of the bosses. I also surprise they do not go to more places from YYZ or add frequency.
Jump to postVery good additions for TAP. I think this actually shows government is not running the show as additions from Lisbon hub, and not some unsustainable OPO strategy as SCQ83 said . I really keep saying their network team finally has a strong vision and they seem to be building around it.
Jump to postIt is so great to see maturity among LH employees.
Jump to postIs the Air Canada moved confirmed? This is a big win for Air Canada to get someone of his talent. But, I disagree with comments about Ramiro. I worked with him at Vueling and he is also good. I cannot see him at a network airline, but Aegean is small so he will do a wonderful job. I feel bad for TAP...
Jump to postIf this is true, it really is a big loss for TAP. Just when they need smart people, they let them leave. I agree with the other poster, both Rafael and Arik are very smart people. I hope the Board is smart enough to retain them. It is funny. TAP needed a totally different approach to commercial plan...
Jump to postI could not find the topic anywhere, and cannot seem to paste the GDS upload, but seems like TAP loaded new destinations over the weekend. I think this is a very bold and good move, and PDL-BOS must be doing well. From their GDS load, it seems: a) PDL-YYZ, 2/week, ...4..7, 321-LR, eff. June 25 b) LI...
Jump to postThis is pure genius marketing from Aeromexico. But then again, they seem to be a brand that clearly stands for something. I am really impressed by this airline. Take a look at this commercial from them.

Sorry, it also says service begins middle of November.
Jump to postThis is a partnership to watch. Westjet + Delta + Aeroméxico!!!
Jump to postHoe does Volotea's cost structure compare to other ULCC's in Europe?
Jump to postThis report is great. Thank You. How can you do it for the world? For major airlines? Too hard?
Jump to postWhy is Korea so corrupt? I do not understand how it can have develop so much with this so old system. Can someone explain to me?
Jump to postI saw this on a Mexican site. I apologize as I use Google Translate. "The new management team at Aeromexico does something surprising AGAIN! They continue their slew of unconventional routes. After surprising market observers with the following shocking routes last month: 1) Bajio - Deitroit 2)...
Jump to postSo, do we know the lid of these flights? Is it worrisome?
Jump to postContinue to be impressed by their Network team. Clearly, BJX is doing well enough that QRO was added quickly. I also saw them adding CUN-MDE. Really impressed by their new network planning team as I keep saying. Lots of unconventional adds coming up - PUJ, LIR, MTY-MCO, and now these two. Saludos, ...

Jump to postWow. They are now announced.
Punta Cana and Liberia in Costa Rica! I am so shocked by the second choice. I cannot believe Aeromexico would open Liberia. And, wow! What do people think?

It is not about hurting anything. It is about not having resumed the route before the competition had the idea of even starting it. Perhaps, and looking at their network, LH was not so keen about resuming MUC-GRU after all. They may well have some other lower hanging fruit out there. For DLH it is ...
Jump to postSeasonal weekend service to Punta Cana starts November flown by AM Connect. Complements daily mainline 737 service to Santo Domingo, which is doing extremely well since it was launched. Will also announce one more destination in Latin America this quarter. https://www.eleconomista.com.mx/empresas/-...
Jump to postI agree with people who comment Aeromexico is a bold airline and probably the most changed in the world. Look at their new TV commercial. Can you imagine a Mexican airline having such a bold commercial even 5 years ago?

Alaska executive team is so bad. I hear all the people who failed airlines like Southwest are there. Time for new people?
Jump to postAir India is doing very good planning.
Jump to postWhat are the new airlines in the pipeline for Manila?
Jump to postDoes Austrian have an independent strategy? It seems like we are running it!
Jump to postI feel AM planning team is sleeping. First, American announces MEX-PHL, and now Emirates announces MEX-BCN. When will they wake up?
Jump to postGreat news. Best will be if they now break the partnership with AF.
Jump to postInteresting times ahead. They should also look at Rouge to make some hirings.
Also, I think they will have angled flat seats. How is their frequent flyer program? Will Canadians switch to them?
When will Turkish Airlines fly to Australia? I thought via DPS?

Ok, this was an aircraft emergency. You need to see the security of Indian airports from issues like terrorism. Outside the terminal, All major Indian Airports have 1 guard for every 5-10 metres (I think so). Ah, ok. I'll bear that in mind the next time my aircraft is on fire at an Indian airport! ...
Jump to postI really LOVE what they have done with marketing the route. Very nice to set it apart and different than usual AirAsia style. Good job.

Jump to postThanks for another great report!
I have never been a real fan of BA though I only flew them in Y. However it seems like one should enjoy the J experience elsewhere.
Thanks for another great trip report! Europe AirPost seems like an option to avoid Air France
Once again a really great and inspiring trip report!
The whole flight seems like an awesome and special experience. The food looks very delicious.
Thanks for sharing
What a wonderful report. I love it. You are the best reporter for sure.
And, yes, I hate CDG. It is horrible, and I do not think it is improving.
