Tweets of the day:
@lift_aero @RunwayGirl In a seatshell: capacity issues now influence brand proposition even at mega airlines. “Game-changing” > “what can be delivered”.
@Mark_Aviation Another loss to the aviation world today was the last flight of Virgin’s Flagship G-VFAB (aka Lady Penelope).
@patsyflynn @Delta to resume it’s seasonal @ShannonAirport to JFK service with extra capacity on May 2nd 2016 using a Boeing 767-300 (225 seats).
@thatjohn So @Finnair is flying journalists in for A350 delivery. But make your own way to JFK, and then Finnair Y JFK-HEL-TLS-HEL-JFK. Nope.
@winglets747 Air India to offer 3 weekly DEL-SFO flights from Dec. Distance: 7706mi – far from the 8701mi needed to surpass EK’s 8588mi DXB-Panama City.
@winglets747 Air India has 10 weeks from announcement to first flight on DEL-SFO route. Ultra long-haul, mixed perception: need as much time as possible.4
