Anyone have a date for EWR terminal 1 yet?
Jump to postHow many slots would you hand out/frequency? That's a big question. In my opinion, the number of hourly slots would have to fall below the average airport acceptance rate. The problem right now is that operations are being run right to the AAR (which is already unrealistic, because it implies certa...
Jump to postIt’s a to late for august, but with SAS canceling a lot of flights due to pilot strike and bankruptcy protection, could UA jump in for September or maybe later and pick up the canceled routings to the US? Given how much growth to South Africa we've seen with South African's struggles, I would not b...
Jump to postNK got the slots! New route predictions?

EWR down to AUA, BOS, CUN, FLL, RSW, LAX, MIA, MBJ, MCO, PUJ, SJU, STI, SDQ, & TPA for a while
Kirby wants more JFK slots, to grow transcon frequencies to LAX and SFO. Will a B6-NK deal produce some opportunities for this as the reporter suggests? Kirby sure is determined to rebuild JFK, and what he views as a big strategic mistake made by a previous management team. UA's JFK exit under Smis...
Jump to postLooking at the loads for all the TATL flights tonight and they really couldn’t be any higher. AMS was the weakest link but still pretty filled. With their possibly being a light at the end of the tunnel for the 787s, do we think it’s possible to see more routes added next year or are we still waitin...
Jump to postPerhaps UA moving EWR-PHL to a bus service and bringing EWR-DCA down to 12x would help reduce congestion at EWR. Hahaha, just an idea…
Jump to postThough suspect the fleet reshuffle, loss of 757s etc will limit smaller regional TA. FWIW, UA has 40 RR powered ETOPS capable 757s being replaced by 50 321XLRs and since UAL has plenty of domestic aircraft, including upcoming 321 NEOS, those XLRs will be used for one thing. In the investor presenta...
Jump to postHow many gates will UA have at the new terminal? Considering AA, DL, and JetBlue will also be there. I think the breakdown is; UA - 12 B6 - 10 AC - 2 (1 shared with UA) AA - 5 DL - 5 I thought B6 abandoned their expansion plans? I was under the impression they were postponed until the facility open...

…In short, EWR is running at or above capacity on a normal day. When weather is impacting the airport and/or arrival/departure routes, the entire operation goes down the toilet. I am of the opinion that EWR needs to return to level 3 status, where the FAA directly slot-controls the airport. United ...

Jump to postWhy is VS so dead set on not returning to EWR? Because it’s EWR. Not much else needs to be said. I agree sorry but is not all that great. It’s a very different market then JFK and people outside of NY/PA/CT/NJ struggle to understand that. Since VS’s departure BA has added another daily flight and U...

I think NK EWR-STL is probably coming next summer. It was rumored last year but never came to fruition. The only reason it didn’t get announced for this summer was probably because of NK capacity constraints and EWR gate availability. Right now they are running 24 (soon to be 25) flights a day out o...

Fares from ACY to PHL seem much higher then those from ABE. Anyone have any insight if ACY is performing well?

Jump to postSaw the new United club at EWR today. Interesting in my opinion, nice and different but not super warm and comfortable. Hopefully this one can open soon along with the new club in terminal A before they begin to renovate the c74 club.
Jump to postJust some random thoughts. With the A321XLR delivery delay til q1 2024. There is a good chance that the AA XLRs won't be delivered on time for summer 2024 and would not have enough pilot and FA training by the summer. Realistically AA might have a full schedule TATL by 2025. It's going to be quiet ...

Lots of cuts for June - must be related to further delays returning the PW 777s, resulting is scrambling to cover the schedule. Gone as far as I can tell, there are probably more: EWR-HNL EWR-OGG IAD-HNL IAD-GRU IAD-GVA IAD-DUB At some point wouldn't it be nice if UA actually said what is happening...

Jump to postYou do have to question how attractive this is. Do people really want to wait around for a bus after landing at PHL, or do they want to get a cheaper fare to PHL, grab a car and drive the rest of the way to ACY? I don't see the bus saving time or being less of a hassle than driving yourself unless ...

Jump to postNot to cite Facebook as a source but I just read about 300+ comments for articles surrounding the issue and about maybe 2 sided with Kirby and United. I feel like his strong attitude and aggressiveness could definitely backfire here.

You may wish to take another read… Yes... in the paragraph you posted is embedded a link to a January 14th article. That's the only link in that argument.

Jump to postI think the words said today about EWR may backfire on UA. Would be fun to see the DOJ force UA to give up a few slot pairs in order to promote competition while not increasing congestion.

Jump to postWN will not fill the gap; NK will and has already began. B6 has tried to expand but that has been cut back significantly due to numerous operational constraints and most importantly the delay of the new terminal. Next summer I expect to see the carriers at EWR averaging; UA - 420 B6 - 60 NK - 30 AA ...

Jump to postWhy is AA so reluctant to add ACY-CLT? Not that this is a credible source but you can go on any ACY social media channel and find the endless comments of people begging to AA to come and serve ACY-CLT. The market is definitely there.
Jump to postI think Philly is way too large of a market to just give up in. I think it would put it in a similar situation to BOS if AA really slimmed up their PHL ops so others would try to fill the void in here and there. I could see F9/NK really growing along with WN and hopefully the legacies.

Jump to postWas looking at AA TATL seat maps for tonight and I was pretty pleased with what I saw. Some flights look to be over 90% full. Now I’m not too familiar with the AA 787 delivery schedule but I think for next year we might actually see a few more cities return.

Given that there are 100 AA check-in counters at PHL, I'm assuming you mean ACY, in which case it sure sounds like it.
So there will be an AA check in counter in Philly?
