@AviationWeek . @qatarairways is making the first steps towards what it describes as a “big order” for @Airbus or @Boeing aircraft. @ATWOnline.
@kate__duffy EasyJet is still set to grow 8% this summer and business travel could potentially reach 2019 levels this year, CEO Johan Lundgren said today. “It is a difficult environment, but certainly I think we will be better off than any competitor.”
@SimonCalder British Airways returns to Bangkok in October – but only 3 x weekly, from Gatwick. BA dropped the route from Heathrow when the pandemic began. Thai and Eva Air fly nonstop from Heathrow. Emirates flies 5 x daily A380s from Dubai, Qatar 6 x daily from Doha.
@simonasbartkus On a surprise move now, @Ryanair plans again to resume flights from Warsaw Modlin to @riga_airport on the 15th of April.
