Tweet Picks:
@byerussell American Airlines took an aggressive approach to capacity in Q2 and it produced results. The airline zigged when competitors zagged and remained the largest of the Big 3 when the standard playbook called for deep cuts.
@byerussell Spirit considers its 31 A319s as something of a “swing component” in the recovery, says CEO Christie. They could be retired, come back at low utilization, or back to full utilization. Their future at Spirit is TBD. The A319s were a fifth of Spirit’s fleet at end-2019. $SAVE.
@CorpJetInvestor The first of six @Pilatus PC-24s, in medevac configuration for the Swedish Air Ambulance Organisation (SAAO), successfully completed its maiden flight this week.
@simonasbartkus Swiss regional airline Helvetic Airways innovates with POP-UP flights: one-time charter operations into safe-covid19-places for Swiss people. They plan to operate such flights to Brac, Tivat, Dubrovnik and Vilnius.
@simonasbartkus .@wizzair postponed routes from Vilnius to Kutaisi and Zaporizhzhya resumption to September. The route Vilnius-Zaporizhzhya was launched and operated for one rotation and then suspended. Weird.
