Tweets of the day:
@Airbus Airlines in the ME will need 2460 new aircraft over the next 20 years, incl. 1570 widebodies like the #A380. #DAS15.
@e_russell Why would the DOJ sue @united and @Delta over their slot deal at #EWR instead of just denying it? Seems waste of tax $$s.
@e_russell @Delta anticipates $1.5bn in annual incremental revenue from branded fares in 2016, says CFO Jacobson. Only rolled out this February.
@e_russell “We are interested in looking at additional smaller mainline aircraft,” says @united acting CFO Laderman.
@FG_STrim Casually wondering: Would there be more order announcements at #DAS15 if there wasn’t so much Open Skies heat on Gulf carrier growth plans?.
