Tweet Picks:
@PaulByrne66 Most of the restrictions on travel should not have been put in place says Johan Lundgren of @easyJet @flightglobal @A4Europe.
@PaulByrne66 Premium cabin load factors are now higher than pre-pandemic levels. It is not just corporate card holders, but people who see quality of space for wellness reasons says @etihad Tony Douglas #CAPASummit.
@PaulByrne66 Single European Skies and more efficient ATC service will save the industry 10% in on time performance and fuel savings/emissions says Michael O’Leary @ryanair @FlightGlobal @A4Europe.
@PaulByrne66 Ticket prices are falling in Apr & May as we are still trying to grow forward Summer bookings. For Jun-Sep, we expect prices to be higher than pre-Covid with 10-15% less industry capacity says Michael O’Leary @ryanair @flighglobal @A4Europe.
@SpaethFlies @Emirates President Sir Tim Clark doesn’t expect delivery of @BoeingAirplanes #Boeing777X before second half of 2025 now – “assuming #FAA finds no further issues”, he tells me. No mention of possible cancellation as he had threatened in my recent interview #avgeek.
