@e_russell Crazy timing but a new low-cost airline in Japan plans to begin flights in less than two weeks, via @winglets747.
@e_russell Delta says it has reached an agreement with Airbus for an enhanced A350 that can fly its longest routes that were the domain of the 777-200LR. Sounds like the high-gross weight variant with a range of 9,321 miles.
@KianiKress And the fun starts with (partly) renationalisation of #Lufthansa german government seems to insist that Airline will take all #airbus planes, even in they‘re not needed. Expect similar Thinge with redundancies and route cuts.
@vl_bryan And this is why politicians should not run airlines. Or try to build airports…
@winglets747 Emirates perhaps unlike any other airline planning for the future or at least flexibility. Tim Clark: “The optimistic scenario is driving what we do now.”
