Tweet Picks:
@SimonCalder British Airways: from today, some journeys involving Heathrow connections take longer. BA has increased the “minimum connecting time” at its base from 1 hour to 75 minutes. Some previous transfers are no longer allowed. At Vienna, the minimum is 25 minutes.
@SimonCalder Ryanair happy to sell flights at a loss, says Michael O’Leary. This week: London Stansted to Venice or Catania, £12.99. Air Passenger Duty alone is £13, meaning Ryanair loses as soon as you step aboard. @FlightFreeUK says: “It’s time to tax airline fuel.”
@WandrMe Another 116 engines in the USA with a nickel powdered metal anomaly that need major repairs, to the tune of nearly $50 million.
@WandrMe SAFs are a critical component of aviation’s plan to decarbonize. But as time marches on and production lags, airlines are turning to easier, less efficient, and occasionally fantastical options to try to meet their goals.
