X Picks:
@AlexInAir Interesting development (& win for Airbus) as Air Canada purchases A350-1000s ahead of its next chapter of growth. Worth noting that many airlines are accelerating Airbus acquisitions as they seek supply-chain stability.
@DanMulhall A record 36.4 million passengers used Dublin Airport last year which underlines the international connectedness of today’s Ireland.
@ericreports Don’t sleep on cargo side of Allegiant $ALGT acquisition of Sun Country Airlines. Amazon $AMZN is big $SNCY customer. Most media aren’t focused on this aspect of the deal, but it’s important for the companies and e-commerce delivery.
@EXYUaviation Podgorica Airport hopes Wizz Air base will win back some of the 140.000 Montenegrin citizens who used Tirana Airport in 2025.
