Tweet Picks:
@ATWOnline A decision on launching a freighter version of the Boeing 777X will be made “when the market wants it” as the manufacturer focuses on ensuring the 777-9 passenger aircraft meets all deliverables when it enters service #DubaiAirshow #DAS.
@ByERussell “We’re already seeing the patterns of business travel are different,” American Airlines CEO Doug Parker says at the Skift Aviation Forum. Business travel will “absolutely” recover fully, but when is TBD, adds Parker. #SkiftLive.
@ByERussell American has no challenges hiring at the carrier itself, says Parker. However, it does see challenges at its vendors, including catering, fuel truck drivers, and at its regional affiliates. $AAL #SkiftLive.
@ByERussell “While there is no shortage of people who want to be pilots — we have had to put some incentives in place for regional pilots,” says American CEO Parker. Pilot staffing, especially at U.S. regionals, is definitely set up to be a limiting factor for airlines in 2022. #SkiftLive.
@skift “When you look at cargo from an airport perspective, it doesn’t drive a lot of revenue for the airport (mainly just landing fees) but drives an incredible economic value for the region.” @DFWAirport CEO on airport’s cargo tie-ins (Amazon has 5M SF on airport grounds) #SkiftLive.
