Tweet Picks:
@David_Slotnick Breeze Airways is phasing out its Embraer E190s from scheduled flying in favor of the A220. The Embraers will be used for charters, founder David Neeleman says.
@David_Slotnick Neeleman says Breeze has a big charter business with NCAA basketball, so that’s helping revenues.
@Exec_Traveller Brazil joins the growing list of countries imposing a compulsory ‘e-visa’ on travellers, with Australians facing a $120 fee per person for arrivals from April 10, 2024 (that start date has been pushed back from January 10).
@Exec_Traveller Confirmed: Turkish Airlines is bringing forward the start of Istanbul-Melbourne flights by two weeks. They’ll now commence March 1, albeit on a Boeing 777 – but that’ll quickly be replaced by a Boeing 787, and shortly after that by an Airbus A350
