Everybody's seen this pic, but this is a better version than I've seen online hitherto http://tbn0.google.com/hosted/images/c?q=548043230 d29632d_large It seems Google now has lots of pics from Life Magazine, and they're worth a browse. Go to http://images.google.com and search for anything-- include "source:life" after the search term. How about this shot at ATL-- think ...

Hi all, Can someone tell me the reason why Portugal still does not feature DL services. How can it be that AGP , frankly a 2nd or 3rd tier Spanish city (No offense to our neighbors!), support a service and LIS cannot. I would imagine that a daily LIS ATL would do well. Can someone enlighten me? Thanks and kind regards, QM001 (167 Air Malawi)

In closed talks this week DL expressed their wish to increase capacity on the very successful JFK - TLV route to twice daily. another option discussed was to upgrade the daily flight from 777 to one of NW 's 747. This comes in addition to LY 's several daily flights to JFK / EWR (which is fully codeshared with AA ), and CO 's double daily EWR - TLV . plus, DL serves TLV ...

I was wondering if we could see either UA or CO increase frequency or a/c size between the carriers hubs with CO join Star Such as UA or CO DEN - EWR -763/4 UA or CO ORD - IAH -763 /4 could we see something like this?

Hello everyone I thought I would start a new thread for Minnesota Avation. Title was picked because snow flurries are in the forecast for Sunday in many parts of the state. I doubt we will see a October 31st snowstorm, but could see a little snow. In the last thread we had over 210 replies which the talk was about Alaska starting service to MSP along with Southwest coming to MSP in ...

I noticed today on November 30, there is a DL 77L flying to DEN as 9735. Why is this on this route? The flight number would mean a charter or something but its possible to buy tickets. Maybe I'm just missing something obvious. Is it crew training?

The rumors of a Delta service to Australia have been around for a few years now. Most of us would assume this would consist of a service to SYD from LAX or ATL . While these rumors have been going on, we have seen Delta go forward with a most amazing expansion into Africa, one which most of us would not have predicted in scope and function - the use of scissor hubs in Dakar and Sal to ...

Is the gal on the right Liz McClarnon? If not, it sure does look like her.

Here's the new proposal from CPH , which in fact is the airport's own solution to building a LCC Area/Terminal. They call it CPH Swift. http://www.cph.dk/ CPH /UK/Newsroom/News/2008/cph+swift.htm

Too much time on my hands today..... How many airlines flying today can you think of that are almost always referred to by their acronym either in the media or when making public address announcements in an airport? Here are a few that I could think off the top of my head: Acronym // Pronounced As // Almost never known as LAN // “Lan Chile” // Líneas Aéreas ...

Supposedly today (Wednesday, 13 November) we will be hearing some new on new Delta international destinations. Anybody know more?

I was curious to know what peoples views would be, of the possibility of the newly merged Delta even considering or placing future orders with Airbus... Or atleast considering Airbus to tender for new orders! Delta has always been a stornch Boeing and McDonnell Douglas customer, and with the wheels now churning at quite a pace with the merger of DL and NW , the new airline is going ...

So now that the merger is complete, the truth can finally start coming out: Delta Air Lines plans to cut 12 percent of its flying out of the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in January, but says it is restructuring the hub here to make it more profitable and therefore sustainable though at least next year. Glen Hauenstein, Delta's executive vice president ...

. . The following post is a lengthy e-mail sent to me from a friend who works in an operations division at Delta Air Lines after I asked him how things were going with the merger. His reply is primarily about the newly-announced organizational structure of his department. He agreed to let me post it because, he says, it shows a side of the Delta-Northwest merger that isn’t commonly ...

Apparently DL and AS are to announce on Monday an expanded codeshare agreement that is being touted as a "major marketing alliance." Info here: http://www.bizjournals.com/seattle/stories/2008/11 /10/daily32.html [Edited 2008-11-13 23:23:29]

Hello everyone, As we're in the high 200s on this thread and as I'm away for a few days ( DXB with BA , from tomorrow, for a few days' R&R), I thought I'd start up No. 40/08. The last thread has seen a few interesting developments, not all of them good, although one can certainly see the bright side of FR 4102; a huge relief that all 172 people survived what could have been a ...
