Jump to postThe KC-46 would have been an A330 if Boeing didn’t somehow snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Their misery since then is well-documented and self-inflicted.
Jump to postSince we pretty much agree that Worcester is a baby blanket for Massport, what would the quasi-governmental agency do if JetBlue said ‘No.’?
Jump to postI don’t know when B6 takes on their next LR to begin BOS-LHR, but I would imagine UA wants to get a head start on bookings that might otherwise have gone to B6.
Jump to postHopefully now UA announces their own plans to LHR now that B6 has done so.

With weakened lift to Asia (CX and HU gone), DL might be wise to bring A350s to BOS and start things up. Gate space isn’t an issue now or in the future with the expansion at E. At what point will HU and CX make their returns? 2022? CX has shed a lot of long-haul frames, and HU isn’t on the best fin...
Jump to postWould it be a smart play for DL to add A350 service at BOS for services to Asia? HU and CX are gone from BOS, and nothing would say ‘commitment to Boston’ more than that (AA flexing its muscles at Logan).

How does Air Canada respond? At the moment, their government has them hamstrung, I think.
Jump to postBOS likely won't get it again. BA will see more competition between BOS and LHR than ever, so the need for the plane really only happens if they also relinquish a frequency. And EK won't even go daily with a 77W, never mind an A380, because India is so weak.
Jump to postI saw the question about BOS-LHR asked, but didn't see it answered. Are they waiting for B6 to come clean on their plans, or maybe UA has decided to shelve it altogether (or at least until 2022).
Jump to postWhen do you think traffic will hit 80% pre-COVID numbers? My bet is Q3 2022. https://www.wcvb.com/article/boston-logan-airport-travel-volumes-3-to-5-years-rebound-massport/36082055 Per Massport, it will be at-least 3-5 years for rebound.

What's your definition of "underwhelming"? Breeze will likely feel like a "big deal" to the cities it chooses to fly to, at least. But that's just it...the list of cities it initially chooses will be a very, very small one. It just doesn't have the planes or people to do anythin...

Jump to postI'm wondering if AA will consider resuming BOS-CDG in the future. Big market, especially in the summer, and its kind of a hole in the OW network from BOS. Given AA's long history on the route and the B6 feed they should be able to fill a 787 in the summer I think more likely is once they start gett...

Jump to postKEF has a reputation for terminal congestion, as I understand. Not an easy place to maneuver through. There are several new flights coming, including this one. It will be interesting to see how it all goes.
