United Regional CPAs

Just for consolidation purposes, could someone list the current United Regional capacity purchase agreements? I just booked to go to CMH in a few days, was surprised that my OKC-ORD CR7 (and return, both on GoJet) doesn't have WLAN. I was surprised because I thought all of the CR7s did, and then I r...

Re: United "extra" checked bag

I lost MP Silver this year and have already forgotten that I used to get a free bag.

It almost makes me reminiscent for 10+ yearly TATL trips.

Re: Hubs you have flown through but not visited the city

IAH, DEN, ZRH, MSP, CVG, BWI, ATL, MEM, WAW

I've changed flights and trains in MUC 20+ times, but I've only ever spent a couple hours in the city itself.

United "extra" checked bag

So, buying a ticket for a job interview and the option to buy an "extra" checked bag. Now, the question is: is this just pre-paying for the checked bag I would pay $2 more for at the airport? If so, why not just call it "Add a checked bag" or something similar? It just seems like...

Re: LH 481 Yesterday

No update on this? It didn't look like they either ferried one in or sent the original flight off?

I'm guessing UA and LH were able to put them on flights to other hubs (eg ORD, IAD, EWR) today? Or just put them on today's flight?

Re: What's confirmed for Sea-Tac?

I assume the shortsightedness of King County people accounts for the light rail, new 520 bridge, waterfront tunnel (which I'm personally a huge proponent of getting rid of the viaduct), trolleys and other infrastructure development. Not sure where you get that. Because light rail, eg, should have b...

Re: OKC expansion/reconfiguration

I can't find reliable info on OKC "in-terminal international gate / F.I.S.", is there any? One could expect a demand for OKC-CUN and perhaps OKC-MEX. Currently no. This expansion will accommodate that. Was there any serious talk about an FIS? Or was it "maybe Allegiant wants to do a ...

Re: OKC expansion/reconfiguration

Just to bring this back around to the point, today's schedule (according to FR24) has the following planned: AA: 17 flights on 3 gates 5.6/gate DL: 12 flights on 3 gates 4/gate UA: 19 flights on 5 gates 3.8/gate WN: 16 flights on 3 gates 5.3/gate AS/G4 1 flight and 1 gate each. AA and DL are primari...

Why do UA have 5 gates? 1 each for IAH, ORD, EWR & DEN. Do they also fly OKC-SFO and/or LAX

OKC expansion/reconfiguration

Hello, OKC is currently undergoing an addition and renovation that will add four gates and reconfigure the security checkpoint. How many flights are operated by each airline? Looking online, UA has five gates, DL, WN, and AA all have three, and the others one. Who's going to move into the new space?...

Re: Southwest planes in state liveries

Oklahoma has been waiting on one since the 90s. It was one of WNs first stations outside Texas That would pretty much be since the 70's. Once the Wright Amendment was modified to include Missouri ie STL, that seriously reduced OKC and TUL stops for anything heading north out of DAL. Sorry, I meant ...

Re: UNITED, new NYC area outdoor advertising

Does someone want to grab a photo of some of these brilliant and/or horrible ads?

IAD debt and high per passenger costs

Is there a particular reason why Dulles' emplacement costs are so high? It's been suggested here that high debts are the reason, but never explained where the debts came from.

Many thanks.

Re: Etihad mulling taking stake in Lufthansa - Air Berlin to merge with Lufthansa, Alitalia might be next

why would anyone really want to take over AZ? If Italy reverts to the Lira, which is increasingly likely, Alitalia becomes a lower cost airline and its current debt a fraction of today's value. You think Italy would be allowed to leave the Euro? Hahahahaha... Also, their debts are in Euro denominat...

Re: ORD F to B15/17

Thanks!

ORD F to B15/17

Greetings all! I've never flown international from Chicago before (for some reason always IAH or IAD), this time OKC-MUC. I'm going from F(15, probably) to B15 or 17 to connect on Lufthansa 435. How long is the walk? I am an aggressively fast walker, so I'm not worried about that. But despite my spe...

Re: How is Frankfurt Airport?

1. I remember the first time I passed through, I found it overwhelming. But after that, it became quite manageable. I don't mind passing through FRA. Just follow the signs, and you'll be fine. 2. Most of the Schengen regional flights get bus gates. Salzburg, Amsterdam, Leipzig, even Vienna. The only...

Re: Different Alliances at LGW and LHR?

We've had this discussion 1000 times before. The problem is that Gatwick is seen as being too far away to be a reasonable alternative. It may or may not be true, the last time I was in London, Gatwick would have been easier for where I was going, but there is no denying it has an image problem. And ...

Re: United Extends Lease at IAD

The underground train and underground security area were completely unnecessary. The moon buggies worked just fine. Yes, and they make such a great impression about the state of American infrastructure to people visiting from overseas. The C/D Terminal is a disgrace, and I hope that DC Airports get...
