@ByERussell Escaping communist Hungary, Steven Udvar-Hazy was more excited about flying on a DC-6 than anything else. The rest is history for the aircraft leasing titan.Great @HowIBuiltThis episode. #avgeek.
@ByERussell “Leisure demand is strong, [and] the premium cabins have been exceptionally strong,” @VirginAtlantic CEO Shai Weiss said of the winter outlook. Helps that Virgin ups sun flying — the Caribbean, Dubai, Florida, the Maldives — in the winter.
@ByERussell And Weiss “hopes” that SAS will join Virgin Atlantic’s transatlantic joint venture with Air France-KLM and Delta, pending approval of Air France-KLM’s investment in the Scandinavian airline. The addition could add more feed to Virgin’s flights.
@ByERussell .@JetBlue would “love” to provide single-itinerary air-rail connections with @GoBrightline in Orlando and Fort Lauderdale, JetBlue President Joanna Geraghty said at the @USTravel’s #FOTM23. Brightline began connecting Orlando to Miami in September.
