DL used to run a fair amount of RJ flights out of MCO to some mid/major cities about five years ago. If my memory serves me right, these included CMH, BHM, BNA, and maybe a few others? They were seasonal. I’m struggling to remember all of them and if those that I listed are accurate. I’d be interes...
Jump to postMCO-HNL is only 2X weekly. It’s not planned as a daily route. The number I have seen is around 100 PDEW for MCO-HNL. That doesn’t include inter island so KOA, OGG and LIH raise those numbers a little bit. Also this flight will draw from other Florida cities as people will drive from TPA, JAX, etc. A...

"Isolation is another issue. Stage lengths aren’t too long to FLO and HTS but does it really make sense to serve them when CAE and CRW are an easy, all interstate drive away?"
I think you meant CHS, not CRW?
It’s an error on Skyscanner’s part. AA5178 flies GSP-CLT. NK doesn’t fly there.
Jump to postOCF is interesting given the population growth around The Villages just to the south. Of course, i realize that MCO and its many nonstop flights is only about twice the driving distance to the south of The Vilalges. Not just The Villages but the Ocala metro area is growing exponentially. I understa...
Jump to postDL served Naples and Marathon from ATL pre-recession. While every market is different, DL hasn't attempted anything to smaller Florida markets since then. Both of those flights took weight penalties, especially Marathon. That was a long and very thin CRJ route that never made sense to me at all. Th...

Jump to postIn addition, Air Cote d’Ivoire Is not ticketable in US GDS systems. For someone who books a few million dollars a year in West African travel, this is exciting.

Jump to postI think that if DL’s new MCO-AMS proves successful we will see MCO-CDG either on DL or AF.
Jump to postUnless DL announces LGA DAB is now listed in the flight drop down menu on the sunwing.ca site. I’m going with this. Yes, but if you try to book, it lists flights to MCO with hotel options in Daytona Beach. Yes because it hasn’t been announced yet. Don’t look at the package vacation tab. Look at fli...

Also remember that KL and AF are a part of the DL JV, so all routes to the US are done in coordination with each other. It's a matter of the right aircraft as to whose metal the flight is on. So IND-CDG and MCO-AMS are JV routes. I do suspect that we will see most of the routes on DL metal, at least...
Jump to postDEN is absolutely on TK's radar. I've been told that it's a 2019 add. AF/KL? Sky Team hubs in SLC, MSP, ATL, DTW flow DEN traffic to AMS and CDG. The question is could they get a premium from DEN nonstop traffic that wouldn't hurt yields elsewhere in the system? My guess is no.
Jump to postMacon, Ga Contour flies MCN-BWI 1-2X daily and SY has chartered service to GPT. Considering how close MCN is to ATL it's a tough sell. This airport has had numerous chances and used to have mainline DL service and the support just isn't there. I think that MCN is still EAS and, if it is, that will ...

Jump to postFound the same on UA from BOS-FLL. $2 difference which was pretty comical. And yet the poor schlubs who are required to use corporate travel booking systems like Concur will be forced to take that $1/$2 savings. That's not necessarily the case. Almost every company I book for will not allow the boo...

It's a prestige route for OS so they can claim they fly to Iraq. There is zero demand for this route, they just mostly fly empty planes into Erbil for the prestige. Do you have any data to support that? LH and their group cancels routes if they are unprofitable. They wouldn't fly empty planes into ...
Jump to postMCO is actually a restart of an old route so I think they know what they are after. It will do well.
Jump to postIn addition to the tourist traffic, there is a substantial amount of traffic generated from USAID and also non-profits that are not government funded. The fares are quite high and KE gets a nice chunk of this business thanks to the DL codeshare through ICN. It's not an odd route at all. More often t...

Jump to postThere is more demand for DAB-WAS (either DCA or IAD) than there is for BWI. When FL had service to BWI there were available onward connections throughout the northeast. That route wouldn't have survived on its own. When the subsidy ran out, FL left town. Unfortunately so did UA because they were unh...
Jump to post@aalaxfan Since US completed the AA merger the morale and customer service levels are in the toilet. Operationally they have many more delays and outright cancellations than DL.
