Tweet Picks:
@AirlineFlyer JetBlue says it won’t fly to Europe until it can prove to itself that doing so will be as profitable or more profitable than a high density A321 operating domestically. Analysis ongoing.
@Airlineroute SWISS’ Geneva – London City service to be operated by Airbus A220-100 from 28OCT18, replacing Helvetic Embraer E190.
@JournoDannyAero Closer to home 🇭🇰 @Fly_Norwegian plans to deliver 3 A320neos to 🇭🇰 HK Express in ‘18. With HK Express recently had growth restrictions lifted, it still had much spare capacity, so wonder where these 3 A320neos will be allocated to – or retire the A320ceos.
@thepointsguy JetBlue reportedly got a 72% discount on its huge A220 order.
@vl_bryan UK White Paper says wants UK participation in @EASA (plus chemicals and medicines agencies), will contribute to costs and accept their rules #Brexit.
