My opinion personally, theres no way a 3x weekly with United on a 757/321lr or even BA to LHR doesn’t work, theres just simply more connections in LHR.[/quote] From an airline standpoint they have to look at not if something would be profitable but if it would be more profitable than another route. ...

San Diego, San Juan, St. Thomas, Montego Bay, Fort Walton Beach.
I would love to see some more UA adds at CLE. I think SAN is a good one.
Competition is good. However, if the disappearance of Spirit results in F9 becoming a better airline nationally with more services at CLE I'd support that. However, I'd like to see any B6 incorporation of NK to result in more B6 service in CLE--at the very least BOS, FLL, MIA, JFK, LHR and LAX, and...

Jump to postJust to clarify the previous posts. The CAK, TOL and YNG-CLE was United mainline, CAK, YNG and TOL-CLE flights were Continental Express.
Jump to postDid CLE ever have historic service to Youngstown airport? How historic are you referring to? Continental Express flew their B1900's between their CLE hub and YNG back in the mid-90s for a short time. BAS Airlines flew C402's between YNG-BKL back in the mid-80s for a short time. I'm sure there are o...

The UA Fleet Site is showing the second A321 (N14502) to be arriving CLE on Nov. 28th and leaving CLE for TPA the same day as UAL3850. Will this be in TPA for induction if UA even does that at TPA? Typing in "UA3850" into flightaware also shows the flight schedule to TPA: https://www.flig...

Jump to postEvery one of the routes you mentioned already is served by AA, DL, along with either WN or another ULCC. I don’t think UA needs the feed from those cites to support their LAX international routes and with the competition the yields would be terrible. Other than to appease frequent flies it would mak...
Jump to postWhy do you say DFW-Asia doesn't really work? Japan and Korea have always been strong for AA. Once China opens back, PVG/PEK will be back in full. I do believe HKG will be back within two years. TPE is a possibility and once Russian airspace opens up, DFW-DEL is a given. Japan, yes, largely due to J...

Has there been any discussion of AA starting an ORD flight? I know there have been rumours of PHL. Given the frequency (and scale with E175s now) of UA's operation in to SBN you would think AA would want a piece of the action. AA really doesn’t have a Pacific Northwest presence. They can connect al...
Jump to postIt's nice that another airline is showing EVV some love. I think there will also be some future announcements out of SBN.

With the announced expansion of US-Chinese slots today, does this mean another round of UA Route announcements or have they already been been part of a previous announcement pending government approval?

Jump to postIt looks like UA is suspending (I would assume seasonally) EWR-HNL. Last flight is 13 April. Strangely IAD-HNL continues (albeit Saturday only). I would have thought that EWR-HNL was the stronger market - maybe IAD-HNL commands a higher yield? A weird drop. Pairs well with the SJU WB turn and EU fl...
Jump to postSFO-CMH makes sense since of the new Intel factory going up/tech. I may be oblivious but what does SBN have to offer to get a direct flight to SFO?

Jump to postPre-covid and pilot shortage, there was a chance it might have worked. Now, there is zero chance they get a regional to operate to Chicago. The best LAF can hope for is some sort of Allegiant type carrier offering a couple flights a week to Florida. Never say never…. Purdue School of Aviation is a ...
Jump to postI would be shocked if SBN got SFO on UA. I would focus energy on DEN. Much larger markets such as SDF, MEM, GRR, MKE, CMH and CVG don’t have SFO service on UA.
Jump to postWhat do you mean? GUM is a crew/aircraft base so the ground time in HND (1:55) is quite fine for an international narrow-body segment. Could it be a little quicker? Sure, I'll give you that. But it's not a terrible sit time. GUM does not have an aircraft base for wide body aircraft. The previous re...

SBN has the normal increase of corporate traffic for a home game weekend today. In addition, United is operating one of each ORD/EWR-SBN flight with a 737-9MAX and Delta is operating one of each LGA/ATL-SBN flights with an A320. Big game Fridays are always great spotting days.

Jump to postIt's not doing that well. It was cut to seasonal, which means it is a leisure route and doesn't carry meaningful business traffic levels, which, where we are now in the pandemic is a weak metric anyway as so much business traffic is mixed into leisure, but LX has the lock on the highest paying fare...
Jump to postSBN spotters, the Aer Lingus ND charter will be landing just before noon.

I’m guessing it was significantly cheaper and quicker to charter 5-6 buses to drive the 4.5 hours to YYZ then to get hotels for the entire plane and wait for the crew to get their required rest.
Jump to postI agree with this and honestly am not sure why MNAA spends so much time pushing for it. Are they though? It’s a long term goal for them, but I think they are (rightfully) focusing on more lower hanging fruit like the WN expansion and additional TATL service. Yes. Kreulen/co mention it every time th...
