@ByERussell And so it begins…Carl Icahn names 2 directors to @JetBlue ‘s board days after buying a nearly 10% stake. $JBLU.

@FlightEmergency I’ve Been on a 757-200 today, they should be protected at all cost…what an aircraft nothing compares to it, the greatest of all time.

@HowardSlutsken Long live the gravel-kit equipped 737-200!! Nolinor spends more than $3M over seven months to refurbish one of its vintage –  and irreplaceable – Boeing twin-jets.

@SimonCalder You can fly to hundreds of international destinations from the UK. All but five are connected from London. The handful that are served only from airports outside the capital: Beauvais, France, Charleroi, Belgium, Faroe Islands, Trapani, Sicily ,Varadero, Cuba.
