    Route Development & Rumours

    On the big blue photo site much of the musings and associated soundings seems to suggest the next tranche of Delta releases are pivoting towards Pacific Rim routes - Hope I am wrong though

    STS Hangar and planned movements

    Other than a transfer by the nose what other work are they doing . Do we know if the registration documentation and computers are being updated here as well . If it’s really only the transfer it could probably be done on stand at Gatwick !

    Almost exactly at the average load factor of 81% for the carrier to date. If 50% plus are making connections still not generating the revenue recovery the CEO and financial departments are targeting/ demanding . Happy New Year btw

    CAA Provisional Statistics Update

    In isolation the loads remain sub optimal for the business model ,are they increasing apparently so I will give you that from your comments re loads at 74 percentage points Though as a business wide there remain some Amber signals especially when the CEO said what he said and reported above...

    CAA Provisional Statistics Update

    Both are true Lufthansa can carry loads around and above 70 % depending on the fare bundle . Potentially even lower if every premium seat and last minute full economy fare are sold. The alliance carriers through Heathrow average loads I believe at 65-70% however the heavy mix of premium and...

    Reading and decoding the language in their statement above, the potential and foundation for deeper structural problems in the business already exist. It wouldn‘t take much to further seriously unsettle those investors (Further energy spikes, recession in prime markets and currency volatility...

    Silvercity that really doesn’t stack up with load factors quoted by another ( Scottie Dog someone adept with statics ) of Keflavik Seats Available - 2,784 Passengers - 1,863 Load Factor - 66.92% for last month These simply aren’t good enough for the type of flexible fares carrier business...

    CAA Provisional Statistics Update

    Pretty poor load factors on the two prime route really then 😉 Well below the ideal plus 70% Through admittedly we don’t know the fare bundle mix. Good to see Lufthansa going near daily through and I suspect connections ( yes you Greenfinch) are paramount to the success of this service The...

    Going to reply to this posted elsewhere ( because our LPL cousins have banned me from the entire site 🤨) and know most of you visit here as well mileymc1 ·#18,774·Dec 15, 2022 ^^ What gets me with many flag carriers is how majority of them only focus on the capital city. Imagine how much...

    Manchester Airport Nostalgia

    And a bag of chips at Longley Lane ! I’d also be on that bus with my dad and we would walk to the post house to get the 102 back up Hall Lane. Occasionally in June and July we would go on our bikes and stay on to about 10 pm on a Friday to catch the SAM Caravelle However it’s was rarely on time !

    Singapore Airlines

    Seems Alaska are grabbing at straws to be honest . Ignores the equal importance of Singapore -UK freight and huge beyond Singapore connections offered from the Manchester end. Yet acknowledges their own weakness on point to point and indeed onward codeshare potential with United, indeed they...

    THG Air

    Its a scissor lift platform and I think I know someone “Me” that could procure one for price , (if I weren’t furloughed indefintely) and delivery would probably be 12 weeks minimum . The handlers DNATA in all probability should be able to transfer one though and I suspect that their own...

    Virgin Atlantic

    People on social media include individuals with agendas often based on hearsay and dubious informative sources tend to lean rather right of Ghenis Khan and use very simplistic views on things if they have views at all ! Right now the economy has been put into deep freeze and I don’t know when...

    HNA are NOT going bust ! however the CAAC are using the current internal Coronavirus issues as a smoke screen for another round of consolidation. That said the entire Chinese aviation industry is a ponzI scheme at best and the conflicts between central government dictates, regional...
