Tweet Picks:
@DubCham We welcome the news that Cathay Pacific will resume its direct Dublin-Hong Kong flights from the end of March. Big opportunity to grow trade and business links between Ireland and Hong Kong – good connectivity is hugely important to realising it.
@e_russell JetBlue has leased used A321s due for delivery later in 2020 to support growth, as it faces continued A321neo delivery delays, says Geraghty.
@e_russell JetBlue will continue to take “targeted network actions” – likely beyond the Long Beach and Oakland cuts – in 2020.
@jonostrower Bringing back the 757 with new engines “is the one [option] that could actually make the suit fit the body with the least amount of pain,” said Mr. Udvar-Házy.
@winglets747 If you flew United on the Sunday after Thanksgiving, you helped United break record revenues. On that day PRASM was up 15%.
