Tweet Picks:
@ethanklapper United is closing its 737 base mx facility at HOU (yes, United has a presence there but no pax service). It opened a new line mx facility at IAH yesterday so there’s room to consolidate all mx functions at IAH.
@e_russell ICYMI: American, Delta and United have begun distributing their idled widebodies on domestic routes with high demand this spring.
@e_russell Delta has raised its stake in Korean Air by one point to 11%.
@e_russell It’s a time of experimentation for the network planners in Dallas, as Southwest Airlines adds its first-ever seasonal destination Steamboat Springs.

@XJTALPA . #avgeek $XJT.
