Jump to postMost of my itineraries are based on aircraft type where I have a choice.

Jump to postThank you for sharing these reviews. They are funny. And thank you for the fond memories they bring back. I remember seeing the movie 2 or 3 times in the small town theater where I grew up. I was only 14. Just a small correction to your post, the original route for Flight 409 is <acronym title="Wash...

Jump to postHands down from experience - the dirtiest inside and out has to be Great Lakes Airways. They fly B-1900's out of <acronym title="Denver - Stapleton International (DEN / KDEN) (Closed), USA - Colorado">DEN</acronym> as code-share commuter service for both United and Frontier.

Jump to postIt is interesting to hear of all the talk of expansion at DIA - the airport that was supposed to be big enough for a long time to come. When DIA was being planned, Continental still had a hub at Stapleton, and the design of DIA was for that to continue in Concourse A. By the time DIA was finished, C...

Jump to postShuttle by United, later the United Shuttle, was not as unsuccessful as many believe. When started up, it was originally intended to answer Southwest's expansion in California. While it did not surpass Southwest in that type of passenger, United found an unintended benefit - the Shuttle became a low...

Jump to postDan:
I may be corrected later on, but in my years of following airlines, I don't think AA ever flew 747's. Their jumbo fleet in the old days was the DC-10 (now MD11).
