Tweet Picks:
@Airlineroute Philippine Airlines to start A350-900XWB service to London Heathrow on 28OCT18.
@e_russell United cites “low demand”, and not pilot staffing, in decision to end ORD-CMI, ORD-MOB and ORD-MHT service in September. All three are flown with either CRJ200s or ERJ-145s.
@KianiKress Now @EtihadAirways all but erases all traces of failed CEO Hogan in re-organisation – returns from group to airline plus concept that more or less buries worldwide ambitions.
@tonyfernandes Off to airbus today in toulouse. Lots to discuss. The 330 neo with rolls Royce engines. They 251 tonne can reach london. The 321 we think is a great plane. Maybe order more ? Business is strong. Bring airbus to malaysia ? More jobs.
@tonyfernandes We have ordered the 330 but to finally confirm it we must make sure price is right. Performance is right . Engine is right. PDP is right. And performance of the 330 251 tonne is right. If right the plane we dreamt of and fought for and then we can order more. Or else.
