Jump to postDo we have any information/renderings of the new T3 N2 concourse that’s supposed to start construction this year, did they opt to go with the revised CAMP Plan for 2021-2022 for 7NB or 5NB / 2WB gates or the original 2019 6NB gates?
Jump to postIf I remember correctly wasn’t there some article stating how AA was going to start relying more on JV partners for certain routes the same way DL does with AF/KL and UA does with LH. I could see them relying more so on JAL to start flying PHX-HND/NRT first, by all means I’m not complaining, would l...
Jump to postYou forgot about Condor's summer-seasonal nonstop to/from FRA. This all gets regularly discussed in the PHX thread, but I think the main issue is that with 2 daily nonstops to/from LHR and DE's summer-seasonal to/from FRA that those really capture all the demand that currently exists. Otherwise som...

UA is suppose to be receiving 2 new planes every week this year, and over 3 per week next year, on average. Once they receive a decent amount more, I’d like to see them re-enter or enter LAX to DFW, MSP, PDX, MIA, FLL, ATL. Just to stir the market up a little! Would love to see how AA and DL would ...
Jump to postThat's interesting that MSP and DTW are both up there.. I guess that being DL fortress hubs they aren't up for a battle attempting those markets. Spirit also serves DTW. I think a daily 737 to DTW would work. Probably not great yields tho. Not sure about LAX-DTW, but AA definitely flew LAX-MSP pre-...

Jump to postWhen did BA switch from the 772 to the 773, is this temporary or something more permanent?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KGsRshWU70
Per the PHX Aviation Thread...
AA update from November
PHX-DFW gets 2 daily 789 and 1 daily 772
PHX-ORD gets 1 daily 788 and 1 daily 789
PHX-HNL gets 1 daily 789
PHX-OGG gets 1 daily 788
When I did a dummy booking the week of Thanksgiving it was showing a 788 between PHX & DFW/ORD. Don't know if they changed it.
Jump to postJust out of curiosity anyone think or know if Eurowings/Lufthansa will start or is that completely cancelled due to the pandemic. I just noticed Eurowings is still listed on Sky Harbor's website in the airlines section.

Jump to postTake this with a massive grain of salt. According to this person, Allegiant is planning PHX flights, operating out of Terminal 3: https://youtu.be/eurfJyQjuC4 I contacted him through another forum, and he said he knows people who work there. I'm unsure how valid that is. Has anyone heard anything e...
Jump to postGoing after AA as well, with them starting PHX-CLT without a doubt PHX-ORD won't be far behind especially with all the Chicagoans that live here.
Jump to postSurprised nobody posted this yet...AA is upgauging PHX-HNL to a 772 for a while next month... Phoenix – Honolulu 19NOV20 – 30NOV20 777-200ER replaces A321neo, 1 daily, replacing previously filed 787-9 source: https://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/294196/american-nov-2020-hawaii-aircraft...

Jump to postTo me that screams that PHX will be hit with the buzzsaw. We have an idea as to where some of the LAX cuts are coming from (the reduced international flying). PHX cuts will be severe (each flight requires fewer FAs so to cut that many FAs means a larger cut of flying). WN is currently the largest c...
Jump to postMost cities have some sort of height restrictions due to downtown/skylines proximity to airports/flight paths, Phoenix and San Diego are probably the two best examples since neither have any highrise buildings over 500 feet due to height restrictions and proximity to the flight paths.
Jump to postEW has pushed FRA-PHX-FRA now to June 1st DE it still scheduled for April 20th, I doubt this will stick I doubt either will stick. I'm willing to bet LH puts off that EW launch till NEXT spring. We might be lucky to get even one of the LHR flights back by 3Q, much less both. Looks like the AA LHR f...
Jump to postWith PHX primarily being a domestic hub I expect it to come back faster than MIA, PHL, LAX and JFK, with everything going on around the globe I expect hubs that are primarily domestic focused like PHX, DEN, SLC, etc. to come back faster than ones that handle large international ops!
Jump to postSomeone in the BA 787-10 thread heard a rumor (scuttlebutt) of BA wanting to go 2x daily on PHX, out of curiosity anyone else hear this supposed rumor?
Jump to postIshrion wrote:Anyways... If you didn't hear the groundbreaking news today, American Airlines is launching Seattle to Bangalore and London Heathrow.
It's already started in the "AS to join OneWorld / AA to make SEA an Intl gateway" thread, if AA and AS merge down the road that means SEA becomes a hub then PHX becomes redundant and will be the first to go blah, blah, blah. Of course I fully expect Delta to retaliate for this one!
Jump to postAt this point I'm waiting to see how DL is going to respond, no doubt in my mind they're going to retaliate!
Jump to postSky Harbor will try and recoup the costs somehow, I remember reading somewhere that airport officials are considering installing toll plazas (similar to DFW) at both entrances of the airport to cut down on cut through traffic between the 10 and 202 which they say clogs roadways and terminals.
Jump to postJames Bennett Director of Sky Harbor had something to say about the ride-share fare hike. Don't be misled: Phoenix airport has every right to recoup costs from Uber and Lyft https://www.azcentral.com/story/opinion/op-ed/2020/01/06/uber-lyft-surprised-phoenix-airport-fees-we-worked-together/279639300...

Considering he mentioned starting markets "in coordination with its partner American Airlines" I can see PHX, PHL, and maybe MIA. Another possibility I could see is LAS due to AA's LAS-HND application.
Jump to postLooking at LH/EW website and PHX-FRA is still bookable well into November 2020, going into their timetable its also bookable in January 2021 (i know its not correct) but interesting this is still in the schedule.

Jump to postAccording to the latest WSJ survey, PHX ranks number #1 airport in the US. While these articles are subjective, I think they picked a fair choice of metrics to measure with.

AA updated its "Fact Sheets" and I noticed they have PHX listed as only serving 86 destinations in 5 countries, while the 5 countries part is correct they serve more than 86 with 95+ in actuality. I wonder if they're not including seasonal routes in their count. http://news.aa.com/multimed...
