Ryanair being forced to cut 17 routes -DAC CEO Eddie Wilson
Podcast: https://www.newstalk.com/podcasts/highlights-from-the-pat-kenny-show/ryanair-being-forced-to-cut-17-routes
Tweet Picks:
@WandrMe Delta wants its Haneda slots to be more flexible. It applied to the DOT to allow it “gateway flexibility” rather than being tied to the 2019 route plans. And it shared some sobering stats on just how depressed the demand is. ATL is best at 64% of 2019 levels. #AvGeek.
@winglets747 Anyone else surprised? Ryanair homepage doesn’t have option to immediately enter flight search details – you have to click on Start search and then go to the next page.
@winglets747 IndiGo has the 5th largest fleet of A320s in the world. It’s looking for only 22 leased A320s. There’s still a huge pool of mid-life aircraft available.
@winglets747 One-third of all credit card spend in Australia is on cards earning Qantas frequent flyer points. One-third.
@winglets747 Right after Delta’s president said they had a 74% paid load factor in domestic first, he said: “real strength in Boston and New York where, of course, we have the leading position in both those markets.” United isn’t big in Boston, AA-B6 unraveling NEA, limited Mint product.
