Tweet Picks:
@HofmannAviation #CEOinterview – Air Serbia believes that by expanding its network to China, the airline can make the most of the economic advantages it has over other European carriers given Serbia’s geographic position in southeastern Europe. Now @AviationWeek.
@jagritichandra Two most important points from IndiGo CEO Pieter Elbers’s interview to CNBC TV18. *A321 XLRs will enable connectivity to Australia from southern India (and into Europe and Asia). *40 planes will be equipped with business class by the end of 2025.
@jonostrower Urgent safety recommendations are rare and this whole episode is extremely strange. Neither the FAA, Boeing, Collins nor NTSB can or will share how many 737s these 353 components are flying on globally — though we know there are none currently in the U.S.
@kpottermn Pleasantly surprised that Aer Lingus will continue flying nonstop @mspairport to Dublin next year! It resumes early April after pausing come late October. Delta will keep flying to Dublin, too. Flying narrowbody A321XLR (vs the widebody A330 with ~130 more seats) is critical.
