Tweet Picks:
@Airlineroute OpenSkies is now using IATA code “LV”, appeared in the OAG since late-May 2018.
@e_russell Reducing costs per enplanement – the amount it costs an airline to board one passenger on a flight – is a big deal to expanding United’s @Dulles_Airport hub, attracting more airlines.
@e_russell United is bringing back some of the capacity it cut in Guam, two of its three GUM-NRT flights will shift to a 777 from a 737 in October.
@ghimlay Only 3% of CEOs at top 100 airlines are women, according to @FlightGlobal Airline Business survey cited here. That number has fallen since, with EasyJet’s McCall replaced by a man.
@ianbirrell If Airbus leaves the UK would lose tax revenues of £1.7bn, excluding social costs of subsequent redundancies. This firm’s revenues cover 21% of net UK cost of EU membership – & that’s just one company (via @Sywert). Underscores again the self-destructive stupidity of Brexit.
@JohnLStrickland Not yet clear whether @BoeingAirplanes MOM middle of market #aircraft will be the 757 like for like replacement or maybe more likely a bit bigger & twin aisle…that would be a different space to @airbus #A321NEO #airlines
