Tweet Picks:
@Airlineroute American Airlines will operate 55% of its original domestic schedule in July, citing consistent improvement in summer leisure travel demand.
@ethanklapper As airlines prepare for significantly more July flying, I can’t wait to see aircraft come out of storage this month and runways return to service. Runway 8/26 at DEN, which was a parking lot for UA, was already reopened two weeks ago. AA has been flying planes out of TUL as well.
@neil_steedman There’s a touch of “If you build it, they will come” about all this, as in “If we start flying, restrictions will be lifted, and passengers will come.”
@R_Wall Airbus say it had no new orders in May, though also zero cancellations.
@SeanM1997 Inverness-Dublin will be back in Summer 2021. Loganair have taken the decision not to restart this summer in light of the social restrictions remaining in place in both the UK and Ireland. However, Loganair will be resuming the route in March 2021.
