@byerussell “American is still deciding how big the airline will be come fall… It is easier to cut flights than to add them, they said, so the strategy preserves options.” Q2 numbers will give us an idea of American’s capacity gambit has paid off. @alyrose
@HAECO_Americas On July 18, 1984, during a transcontinental People Express flight from Newark to Los Angeles, Baltimore-born Beverly Burns went down in history as the first #female pilot to command a Boeing #747. #womeninaviation.
@Keith_Humphrey “Despite bracing for a slow recovery, the poll reveals a sense of optimism for the future, with only 1 in 20 respondents believing that the industry will be permanently damaged by #COVID19.”
@Keith_Humphrey “Over the next few years, @Delta will accelerate fleet retirement for their entire MD-88, MD-90, Boeing 777 and 737-700 fleets along with portions of the 767-300ER and Airbus A320 fleets as well.
@Keith_Humphrey “When we survey customers today about reasons you’re purchasing a ticket on @Delta, the space on board the plane (and) the blocked middle seats has gone to the No. 1 reason why customers are choosing Delta.
