Forgive me if this question was covered before, but was LAX ever a big market for EY? With QR double-daily and EK with their history, will they ever add LAX back to their network? When I flew LAX-AUH in Dec 2019, it was absolutely full, but of course that wouldn’t say how well the route was doing. ...
