@e_russell “During the middle of the day, you could run a bowling ball down the middle of the runways at JFK, they’re only busy at night,” the classic quip on #JFK before JetBlue launched in 2000.
@JosephMuscat_JM We welcome the birth of #MaltaAir, @Ryanair ‘s new #Malta based airline, creating 350 new jobs, an investment of $1billion and the gradual transfer of at least 50 aircraft to our register -JM @KonradMizzi
@tonyfernandes Started off with just 2 planes and now we have supported over 390,000 jobs directly and indirectly through the tourism multiplier effect.
@winglets747 United’s Chicago-Hong Kong will remain a 777-200ER, but a pre-merger Continental -200ER with 6-abreast business. Interim step until Polaris retrofit. United MD: “We’ve completely eliminated the old United business class cabin from the Hong Kong market.”
