Jump to postA very out of touch comment. That stuff can have all sorts of strange diseases and germs that could jeopardize the crew. FAs are not paid enough to handle that.

Jump to postThat's not at all what I suggested. That might be what you assumed, but it's not what I was referring to.

Jump to postIt is true that the cap decreased. But a 12 months rolling period August 22 - July 23 shows 419.303 movements, and the new cap is 452.500 as per your source. Which leaves room for ~8% growth. All the cap decrease effectively does is limit growth to that 8% (for now). https://www.schiphol.nl/en/schi...

Jump to postKLM seems to be cutting everywhere in the long haul lately. Not surprising at all based on the price of taxes from Schiphol. They will have a hard time for sure. Where are they cutting?

Jump to postAF could pick up some of the long-haul routes that will be canceled and then adjust capacity on CDG-AMS as needed. Some of the African traffic could be routed over CDG instead of AMS or larger aircraft could be used on AF flights. This is still a big mess to sort through. DL is also threatening to ...
Jump to postJetty - do you happen to have rolling 12 month data ? I suspect AMS was still rather quieter in the first 3 months of 2022 compared to Q1 in 2023 due to the tail end of Covid I think the 2022 data is not yet meaningful because some countries were not yet open (China and Japan for example). Also, th...
Jump to postFor reference: currently AMS is the 2nd busiest non-US airport by aircraft movements and by far the busiest airport in the world looking just at international aircraft movements. The proposed 452.000 still leaves room for growth (10%). No airline will lose slots. https://aci.aero/wp-content/uploads/...
