Tweet Picks:
@Airlineroute Air India resumes Mumbai – New York JFK nonstop service on 07DEC18, 3 weekly 777-300ER. The airline last served this nonstop route until October 2010 with 777-200LR.
@e_russell Embraer touts E2 costs – 10% better than the A220, they say – in effort to land US orders.
@e_russell The decision to hold off on delivering the E175-E2 until 2021 is a “commercial decision, precisely because the E1 is still in production for the US market”, says @embraer. #ALTAforum.
@e_russell US carriers have ordered E175-E1s in droves since the current upgauging programme began in 2012, and they continue to top up their orders. Like United’s order for 25 E175s at Farnborough this July. #ALTAforum.
@ghimlay .@ALTA_aero president and @Avianca CEO Hernan Rincon says his “number one headache” is the state of airports in the region #ALTAForum.
