Condor currently has a fleet of 11 RR-powered 757-300s, two of which appear to be permanently withdrawn from service, and the other nine of which will be withdrawn after either the 2024 or 2025 summer seasons. They previously flew four others, two of which are stored and two of which have gone to C...
Jump to post[quote="sethtoast"]I was interested in this question, and a flaw with this article is that it only considers single airport pairs (i.e. LGA - ATL, EWR - ATL, JFK - ATL are all distinct routes and not counted together). I got bored, and analyzed the T-100 segment data with a matlab script. ...

Jump to postWhere would they fly in Europe where both of the following are true: (1) they don't step on an alliance partner but (2) they can count on any feed on the other end?

Jump to postNow that American has abandoned their plans for international flying out of Seattle, it’s time for Alaska to make some hard decisions.

I find it interesting how so many here say that AS threatens DL’s operations in SEA. AS IS a domestic airline. They do not fly TATL or TPAC, meaning that unless they wanted to go Long-Haul, they wouldn’t ever threaten DL’s Int’l flights out of SEA. Personally, I think AC’s hub at YVR is waaay more ...

Jump to postI think most pilots flying that day could be called heros; how they and ATC managed to put the entire fleet of flying planes on the ground at the nearest suitable airport, and did so without a glitch, is a testament to their professionalism and training.

Jump to postI used to fly SEA-LWS around 4X/year for work.

AS’s last attempt at a new focus city was SLC but it was pretty much a failure. SAN is their biggest success of late and I’d look for more growth there. They abhor losing money so I don’t see them ever trying anything new as far as a focus city in the Midwest. More flights between existing cities s...
Jump to postLooking at the ANC wiki page shows 982000 passengers in a year to SEA. That works out to an average of about 2690 a day. That seems much more in line with what I would have envisioned given all the flights between ANC and SEA.
Wedgetail737, thanks for your input reference Bethel.
If it's flown on a Saturday-only basis (like ANC-DEN/MSP/SLC) it might perform well. But then again, that's a lot of aircraft block time for such a thin route, even if it's only once a week. ANC-DEN/SLC/MSP are all bigger local markets than ANC-BOS. If AS ever takes a swing at ANC-East Coast, my mo...
Jump to postSLC was the Delta Connection, I remembered it being US Airways. It's not that SBP "just got one more regional flight" that I am hoping for ORD or EWR service, it is because of a decade now of growth out of the airport and it becoming the dominant airport for the Central Coast of Californi...
Jump to postThat is correct, Contour was the last airline to operate between SBP-LAS. Before that US-Airways served the route using the first regional jets to fly into the airport: CRJ-200s. US Airways also operated a SBP-SLC route for a few years, which was the longest flight out of the airport for a few deca...

Jump to postIt's interesting flying mainline to the smaller airports. I flew SEA-RDM on a 737-900ER fairly recently. I remember well-before the pandemic when AS flew mainline out of BLI to several destinations, including HNL. AS has done BLI-LAS, BLI-HNL, BLI-OGG, and I think BLI-KOA. They’ve also had 737s on ...
Jump to postOn the April 18 sked, changes have been made to the SAN-FAT market with 3x daily r/t EMJ service replacing the previous sked of 1x 739 and 1 EMJ on the route.

Jump to postSo I see AS 839 to LIH is making a stop in SFO instead of the normal non-stop from Seattle. It looks like other AS flights are non-stop from SEA to Hawaii. Anyone in the know know why this one flight is going to SFO instead of going non-stop? Is just because of the few extra miles to LIH vs a flight...
