Tweet Picks:
@WandrMe Aegean CCO Roland Jaggi: We have a ton of data, but it remains siloed. We wanted to know how many unique customers we had. “A very simple question that is damn hard to answer.” #PaxEx #FTEEMEA.
@WandrMe Michael Cawley speaking for Ryanair in the closing session. Says 25-33% of pax growth in the near term will come from using the larger aircraft of the MAX 10 order. And with minimal increased trip cost. #fteemea #paxex.
@winglets747 Fair fares? Qantas’ last reported domestic EBIT margin was 22%. The target is 18%.
@winglets747 It used to be rare to see Jetstar A321s. But around 2027, more than half of Jetstar’s narrowbody capacity will be flown by the A321LR/XLR. This includes domestic and international (a lot of Bali sectors).
@winglets747 Start-up Global Airlines has apparently bought an A380 for UK-US flights. Selling/leasing modern large, premium aircraft to other operators has largely been successful where extensive retrofits aren’t needed. But you need sales and network to achieve yields.
