BFI-GEG isn’t showing on FlightAware yet, but here’s the inbound from YVR: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/ACA7 ... /CYVR/KBFI
A couple things that kind of caught my eye on this:
- Used AC aircraft instead of AS, considering that AS is the Kraken's official airline
- Used BFI instead of PAE, since the Kraken mentioned in a press report that they would use PAE.
AS doesn’t have any VIP configured aircraft that I’m aware of, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the Kraken go with another airline for their regular season travel. Most pro sports have it written into bargaining agreements that teams will charter VIP aircraft. DL and AC both have subfleets dedicated to this enterprise.
