Quoting FlyDeltaJets87 ( Reply 154 ): He used to fly int'l routes when he had more seniority. But with the cuts in pilots and routes, his spot on the seniority list doesn't allow him to get the int'l routes anymore like he used to. And, again, what international routes did he used to fly that he can no longer fly?

Quoting JRadier ( Reply 62 ): Well, Boeing isn't exactly offering that 50% again, and FR 's orders and options will try up eventually... Boeing might very well be offering 50% off current list. It's just that 50% off current list is $39 million a flyable frame vs. the $29 million he paid in 2001. So if FR wants to drop another $4 billion on an order, instead of that amount covering 145 planes, they're looking at only 109....

Quoting Airbuseric ( Reply 6 ): Quoting Kaitak (Reply 5): Do they have any runways which are Cat III? TK has a fairly modern fleet, so I'd have thought most, if not all, of its fleet is Cat III compliant? Not only equipment is neccesary, also flightcrew should be CAT III to be able to do such landings. I don't know details about IST or TK crews though. Sorry i'm new and it may be a silly question.. If the aircraft is equipped...

Quoting LipeGIG ( Reply 10 ): Lets wait and see Mark. The deal with DL was made before they begin advertise or got approval for the CLT - GIG . But the application was submitted afterward. Though I'm not even sure that the DL /US deal is going to get approved in the first place, which will save US and GIG , at least for now.

Quoting Mauiman31 ( Reply 1 ): Others will follow. . . $$$ As a pax. . . doesn't bother me a bit. Nor I. I would rather see a tasteful add than watch the layoffs continue. Quoting Atlwest1 ( Reply 5 ): Also I think they should look into doing what Western Pacific did with the LOGO jets. Great way to advertise. I'm all for LOGO jets, but it doesn't seem to work for all products. Too many products that it does work for are......

Quoting Lightsaber ( Reply 70 ): Did you find a direct quote? I'm using the link in post #66, from the Independent (Irish) newspaper. It is direct, in quotation marks, preceded by "afterwards he said." I suspect he said it thinking it might be off the record ("afterwards"), but given the other inflammatory statements in the interview ("kicked the sh*t out of Airbus"), I'm guessing he was in a very jolly...

Quoting RussianJet ( Reply 184 ): if a crew member takes things with them that they cannot take back, then surely that is their own fault. UK rules in spite of their silliness are no secret. I wholly agree with you there....if a passenger cannot take hundreds of dollars worth of duty free, why should crew be able to? I just don't understand this want of special dispensation.

Quoting ThegreatRDU ( Reply 185 ): So when you get your paycheck/salary stub or whatever...how much is taken out in taxes?..... A fair amount. Emphasis on fair. Quoting Luv2cattlecall ( Reply 189 ): The BOD can and will fire under-performing CEO's at their whim. After paying the termination pay agreed upon in the contract. Typically an 8-figure number. Quoting Luv2cattlecall ( Reply 189 ): And when I started driving, my parents forced me...

Quoting Jfk777 ( Reply 18 ): TG also has 6 777-200ER with GE engines No, they don't.

Quoting LipeGIG ( Thread starter ): - Does AA will venture into BSB ? Does AA will apply for JFK - GIG again ? Interesting questions. DL is most aggressive in trying new routes so I think ATL - BSB is a go. AA may follow them on BSB , given they have some frequencies they can shift too. I don't see AA going for JFK - GIG . Which... Quoting LipeGIG ( Thread starter ): - Does CO will continue to explore GIG with a flight out of EWR ?...
