@e_russell ICYMI: Norwegian plans to connect London and Rio in 2019, and CEO Kjos thinks there’s more growth opportunity between Southern Europe – Barcelona, Madrid, Rome – and South America.
@e_russell OpenSkies retires final 767 after last flight to Newark, with British Airways only a few months behind.
@WandrMe “Teething problems” of the P&W GTF engines for @airBaltic are over according to CEO Gauss. Admits it hurt early but now strongly positioned. Laughs at Airbus pitching the A319neo as the equivalent during the bid, noting the latter isn’t really being made. #aviationfest #avgeek
@WandrMe Carrier flies 4MM pax annually with 50% connecting. CEO Gauss is very keen on the A220-300 full fleet conversion and growing the connection options. #avgeek #aviationfest.
@WandrMe .@airBaltic CEO notes that business class inventory on the A220/CSeries is fully dynamic. Pax booking levels drive seat blocking and moving the curtain. Full flight could be J if enough book it. #paxex #aviationfest.
