Re: Wizz Air News and Discussion Thread - 2021
The comfort cannot be judged from seeing the pictures. As the seats are made for the XLR, we gonna see how comfy they are.
Wizz won't add more seat rows. The XLR will have the same amount of seats as the A321neo.

Re: Ryanair News and Discussion Thread - 2021
Ryanair is now more premium than Condor. At Condor only this small hand luggage is included: 10cm( ! )x30cmx40cm While Ryanair includes 40x25x20cm. The Ryanair sizer actually is 42x30x20. https://www.linkpicture.com/q/Screen-Shot-2018-08-23-at-14.04.56-750x233.jpg https://aviation.direct/en/handgepa...

Re: Spanish Aviation Thread - 2021
Is there unused hotel capacity during peak time in the Canaries to accommodate significantly more people flying in on lots of new air routes, compared to 2019 ? The Canaries are an all-year destination. In red are the number of overnight stays in 2019: https://www.linkpicture.com/q/Screenshot_20211...

Re: Indigo Partners orders 255 A321neo family aircraft
JetSmart has now a fleet of 19 and orders for 96.
Sky Airline has 25 aircraft and just 17 on order.
I wonder if Sky counters that and buys new planes near term. As yet they are Chile's number two.

Re: Spanish Aviation Thread - 2021
In summer I find the air and sea temperatures on the Canaries more pleasant. In winter on Hawaii.
Wizz said they want to connect the edges of their network with the XLR. The Cannaries may be connected with Moscow, Kazan, Israel, Finland, Reykjavik, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia ^^

Re: Indigo Partners orders 255 A321neo family aircraft
That said, the xLRs make sense (ULCCs will tremendously benefit over prior A321s by integrating the fuel tank). That opens new missions.

It looks like Ryanair conquers the Swedish market. A new route from Stansted to Örebro. Which is just 100km away from the Stockholm Västerås airport. Ryanair serves now 9 Swedish airports. And there are 5 domestic routes from Arlanda. The country of Greta seems to like it .. https://www.aviation24.b...

Yes. And the low rankings for Asian airlines?

The airline Yakutia is at 0.5%?

One article says that Wizz gonna have 170 planes in spring 2021 already. Currently they have 146. According to a former chart their A320ceo are going to be reduced from currently 61 to 52 in spring. So in the end there would be 24+9=33 deliveries needed until the end of spring in 7 months. Means 33/...
