Third group challenges DAA runway plan
Tweet Picks:
@AirlineFlyer .@SouthwestAir finally scheduled its 737 MAX 8 to visit @LGAairport, though only from @DallasLoveField during Thanksgiving & Christmas.
@aviator_aero Rumor mill: Hainan Airlines said to be interested in Alitalia.
@jonostrower The 737 Max is officially in service. First flight between KUL and SIN in the books.
@winglets747 Banks want Cathay to cut routes – which it will refuse to do. Need to grow hub, connectivity, city-pairs, frequency.
@winglets747 Interesting that Cathay seals Iberia codeshare. Iberia sister British Airways lobbied against deal. Weighing group v indiv airline benefit.
