Tweet Picks:
@jonostrower Surf Air has shared extensive details on its ops & future plans, exposing many investors to the concept of RAM for the first time, along with the pieces (many of which don’t yet exist) that will need to fall into place to make it work.
@miller22 Since 2019, few airlines have increased service across the Atlantic, and none have increased as much as Turkish Airlines.
@winglets747 Waning domestic US travel demand: are people just getting tired of travelling? Work from home and flexible arrangements unleashed demand. Many still have flexibility and high disposable income. But after a while at the all you can eat buffet, you slow down.
@winglets747 Wizz Air v Ryanair backlog Wizz Air: 356 Airbus A320neo family through at least 2029 (281 A320neo from previous announcements and 75 A321neo from today’s announcement). Ryanair: 241 Boeing 737 MAX through 2033 (91 from previous order and 150 from 2023 deal, excludes 150 options).
@winglets747 Perspective changes significantly if you expect Ryanair to convert all its 150 options. But note Ryanair likely has a further out delivery window. And need to consider replacement v growth, Wizz allocating frames outside of Europe (ie Abu Dhabi), etc.
