Tweet Picks:
@AvWeekScho JAL is increasing its focus on widebody LCC (again, like ANA). JAL’s Zipair will “aim for steady growth as demand recovers.” Four more planes to be added (flying two 787s now), and more growth to be considered.
@ByERussell Air Canada’s partnership with United “will be important” as it cautiously builds back its transborder network post-COVID, says Air Canada commercial chief Lucie Guillemette. Nothing on a possible transborder JV.
@ByERussell “We expect there to be an airworthiness directive issued this year” but do not expect the MAX to fly to or in Canada until early 2021, says Air Canada CEO Rovinescu.
@PPaulCharles Very encouraging news from @grantshapps that #quarantine from high-risk zones will be reduced by at least 50% in December, possibly to just 5 days plus test. This will have a major impact on confidence to book and travel, and help to reignite the sector quickly. @ThePCAgency.
@R_Wall Ryanair sees Boeing 737 MAX 8 to return to service in North America toward the end of November/early December. Sees its MAX 200s ready for delivery ‘maybe in late January or early February.’
