Jump to postI guess to everyone who thinks AA will leave, wouldn’t AA be more threatened by F9 from SLC? I think it would be a waste of time and money setting up in PVU when you could just crash the prices from SLC and get everyone to fly out of the big airport.
Jump to postLike I posted in the AA thread. Super excited here!!!!! Just wish it was starting this summer, but I assume because the aircraft will overnight, so the airport needs to get more concrete poured. I haven’t flown the CRJ-700 until I moved here to SLC 2 years ago. Now I have been on it so much I actual...

Jump to postThat’s the thing, LOT is very slow at getting aircraft on its own. Not sure they will grow enough by the time CPK is ready to monopolize an airport that large, someone might come in and outgrow them at their own home. I guess if the fees are so insane to cover new airport costs, it might just hurt e...

Jump to postIs BT is such dire straits? I thought they were in decent shape by the looks of it and now apparently studying the possibility of longhaul flying to the US.

Jump to postAnyone know why a German Air Force A350CJ flew through SLC today? Sadly, I couldn’t go watch it. Looks like it did a touch-and-go on 34L then flew to TUS. Saw that one at my work!

Jump to postHow old are LOT's 170s and 175s? It would seem like LOTs best option is to emulate KLM Cityhopper. Order the 195-E2 and operate them alongside their existing E-jet fleet, while possibly phasing out the smallest model. A few are from March, April and June 2004!! So happy 20 years in service!! I too ...
Jump to postSince a few spoke up about the 787s for LOT few posts up. I wonder if there is something in the plans between Boeing and LOT? Otherwise why haven’t those been reassigned to somebody else. I know LOT is quite pissed at Boeing, but last year a Boeing rep did say they are LOTs to take.
Jump to postUgh. Disappointed it is not Wendover!! I thought that that would be a perfect spot. Close enough to a big city and gambling fun!!

Making space for United’s new hub at MCO?
Jump to postCongrats to TPA! As so many times, wish this was an option years ago when I lived in the area.
Jump to postHow early would A350 be available for AA? At least in some decent numbers. I know B787s production is full too for a while. I’m going to guess the leak is just to get Boeing to loosen up some incentives and maybe brown some undies in Seattle.
Jump to postWow - 22 MAX would make quite a nice fleet. Yes! Something of a consistency!!

Jump to postCouldn't they have put something under leak to catch the fuel rather than having it flow onto the snow? Lucky that the pole didn't rip off the MLG/ make contact with engines In keeping with a.net tradition..... wingbox damage. Writeoff.... :D There is a box. Looks like foam wherever they parked??

Jump to postLOT offers great connections at its compact hub. This is thanks to the frequencies, thus E-jets to FRA and CDG. LHR is now all 73M. Can the hub be expanded, i.e. can WAW do the job over CPK? To my mind LO may actually enjoy an advantage at WAW which it might loose at CPK... It can, and there were p...
