i flew CLT-LAX and got snack and a can of coke. i mean its not a meal but at least they gave something.

GDL,MEX and maybe MTY to these US cities sounds like a good plan if they will have enough planes.
but the others lets say it would NEVER happen nor work...
Talk about throwing darts at a board to see what sticks. Most of these City pairs won't be sustainable as daily year round flights on A320 Aircraft. Most of these city pairs are 50 seat RJ markets at best. When was the last time Americans routinely flew between the US and Acapulco? They don't becau...
Jump to postits a great thing because it can create new long haul routes on smaller markets yet to be flown.
Jump to postits nice to see UA frowing in there and they will soon add SFO-OMA. IMO, im pretty sure DEN is one of the best connection airports in the US.
Jump to postalso british tourism to cyprus and bulgaria is very popular.
Jump to postgreat report! did you travel to bratislava or on business? and i really love the video report!
Jump to posti just flew iberia a320, the flight had a really terrible legroom(im 1.82 meters).
Jump to postwith AM already flying that route, is there really a room for competition on that tiny market?
Jump to postGood. So they think that the few people traveling to SJU from KIN (mainly business people) will drive from KIN to OCJ to then use a small plane to PLS and then SJU. It will be no different from today's activities where persons from different areas of Jamaica will endure the road trip to KIN take a ...
Jump to postwas there ever CTG-MAD route? There was a triangular route MAD-BOG-CTG-MAD flown by Air Madrid until 2006. In addition, Air Europa had some charters to CTG and was planning to open a scheduled MAD-CTG route by December 2011 with B767-300. However, this did not happen in part due to strikes and labo...
Jump to postdoes F9,NK,WN and B6 have interline services in their connections? i have never tried connecting with LCCs.
Jump to postNGO seems like a nice extension to UA in SFO for business travelers.

why would Ethiopian Airlines would fly to jamaica?

Skyteam i think is the worse of the three...
SFO-BKK seems like a great route with connection options,tourism and business relations!
not so sure about SEA...
DolphinAir747 wrote:Nice! I'd actually started a thread last year or so asking why no one flew the route. Probably a lot of package tour-type and honeymoon traffic etc. to fill up the plane.
wow looks like a nice flight! sure looks better than AA LAX-SYD.
Jump to postthe good thing is they will keep some 747s. its nice to see that there are still airlines keeping the queen of the skies.
Jump to postif JU and UIA can make this work why cant them? they would probably sell tickets at very low price and it could be a good cheap connection to the us from eastern european countries and maybe asian countries.
Jump to postFlybe also starts MAN-TLS,MAN-LUX and MAN-LYS operations, nice to see them grow!
Jump to postIt's been at GLA a few times now, subbing for the normal A320. I still miss the Tu-154 to be honest... ;-) Yes, as much as I liked seeing the A330 this evening a TU-154 would be a much cooler plan to see! Does anyone know how well they are doing on the route? Is it working out for them? i dont know...
Jump to postwhats really weird is the YYT-LHR route. how a tiny city like st johns and with no connection options gets enough pax even to fill an a319, this route seems like it only serves newfoundland.
Jump to postEWR-MCO is a huge market and i dont see a reason for NK to avoid this route i think they would really succeed.
plus MYR is a nice addition!
i think IB is the most important airline in central america and is connecting many countries to and from europe in routes such as GUA,SJO,MEX,SJU and SAL.
Jump to postthe SFO-SYD has high O&D traffic and i guess MEL/BNE-SFO has much less so LAX seems like a nice choice due to the high O&D traffic.
BTW, how does the AC YVR-BNE route is doing?
its one of their many routes in asia that is highly relying on tourists to asia that connect via ICN.
Jump to postSFO and TLV are two tech cities. SFO has silicon valley, TLV has silicon "wadi". There is money to be made between SFO and TLV, something you didn't have between PHL-TLV and will be hard to replicate on MIA-TLV. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_Wadi[/quote] well thats one of the main r...
Jump to postprobably an airport in LA metro(most likely to be LAX but maybe LGB/ONT).
Jump to posti guess delta is the only one that can significantly can change the international flight status at SEA. although i think China Southern can add CAN-SEA route. theres a slight chance it would happen but maybe there will be a SYD-SEA.
Jump to postthats nice to see route additions to the brazilian airports!
i wonder if maybe LATAM Argentina/Aerolíneas Argentinas will add COR-MIA flight...
i wonder if KE will start YUL-ICN flights, it can really boost pax numbers from asia to YUL.
Jump to postAny chance we see a SFO-SGN in the future? The economy of Vietnam seems to be doing very well lately and with no direct air links to the United States it seems like an area for growth. Vietnam is not rated by the FAA. Therefore, their is no air agreement between the USA and Vietnam. Until they sign...
Jump to postwell thats nice to hear! WN is doing great lately, i hope they will succeed.
Jump to postand another off topic question, how can you check certain routes load factor?is there a website or you need to have some access to that information because the load factor of that flight is interesting.
Jump to postits kind of interesting flight since there are no many connections available on CLT side. maybe its serving pax from the us who connect to europe via MUC?
Jump to postCLE or CMH make sense to me. They should be able to fill A321 at least during summer or less then daily year round. The narrow-body range destinations make more sense to me for that airline. no they wont... WW wouldnt serve mid sized cities at first, they would go for the bigger markets like PHL,OR...

You're already "pretty sure" about the pre-determined conclusion, so what exactly can we offer you to change your mind ?
well i have seen that in 2015- 111,243 pax flew the MUC-CLT route, a 26% lower number than 2014. and to be honest, it kind of makes sense. after the US-AA merger the new AA airline became a OneWorld member, and afterwards CLT became a OneWorld hub and thats not so good to LH... i guess now there are...
Jump to postSad for GRU to lose another carrier but unsurprising given the situation in Brazil. I certainly don't expect WK ZRH-GIG to last long. There's a rumor being discussed in another thread of LH starting MUC-EZE, which would certainly make sense given this move and the recent reversal of fortunes for Ar...
Jump to postwow a very nice trip! thanks for sharing.
