    Logan Airport Flights and Airlines Discussion

    CVG has been pushing for a lcc to fly to bos. I bet we will see it within the next 2 year, maybe sooner. If DL wants to win over boston business travelers, they need a dc option. If not dca, it will be dulles or bwi. Delta has a massive expansion planned for this summer. For example, they...

    Since we entered speculation territory, here are my guesses WN: CVG, FLL, SAT DL: DCA (need it for business), ORD, Canada (dl has a history), HNL B6: increase ORD, PDX (mint), generally increase service on business oriented routes, MCI (1x), STL (1x), Belize (1x), further roll out of mint...

    Totally right, I read it too fast. I thiink WN is by far the most likely chocie and will probably add it when they get their additional gates. Jetblue may also add it. Personally, I am doubtful that AS will add it but that is based on speculation only

    On a different topic, BOS apparently has room for an additional 300 departures per day using the existing facilities Announced gains for the next few couple of years: B6: current: about 120, going to 200 (no date given). increase: 80 DL: current: about 75 (guess), going to 120 in 2018...

    While I agree that SAT is woefully underserved, it is not even in the top 7 most underserved flights when sorted by one stop bookings (I only have data for the top 7). If anyone is curious, here they are: BOS -MCO BOS - LAS BOS - SFO (this will change given the increase in service) BOS - LAX...

    The New Retail Thread

    YES YES YES. This is fantastic! I love &pizza with a passion. I frequently am in DC and I love it. Probably have been at least once a month for the past couple of years. Totally fantastic addition anywhere. This isn't too shocking because their CFO is a boston guy (HBS and worked in PE here)...

    Southwest just came out with their 2017 summer schedule. For Boston, there are three changes: BOS-MDW now has 6 departures per day, up from 4 BOS - STL now has 4 departures per day, up from 3 BOS - ATL still has 3 departures per day, but the earliest one is now moved to a painful 5:05am...

    2 flights from jetblue (7:00 pm and 9:55 pm) and 1 from spirit (6:40 pm). This is a great website: http://www.flightconnections.com/ This is for the current week's schedule so some flights like b6 bos-atl aren't in it yet

    I may have missed it, but i do not remember seeing the terminal A/B pre/post security connector project. It is listed as a projected project so I do not think it will break ground all that soon. Current budget: $40 million...

    I found this Supplemental Information Package For Trade Contractor Pre-Qualification posted online in july. It looks like it will connect the gates, demolish the small tsa checkpoint, refurbish the area, new elevators, and refurb bathrooms. Unsure if the next few events like posting a RFQ...

    all good - it is nice to hear this echoed by an insider! Back to the delta summer schedule, this is a huge increase compared to this past summer. It will be very interesting to watch how full the flights are, the boston margins, and if they swap out any equipment. Same with Jetblue.

    Yes I want to say that I was wrong that AA was going down to 12, they are going down to 18. My bad! Sources: https://www.massport.com/capitalprogramsattachments/L1375-C1/L1375-C1%20CM%20at%20Risk%20Supplemental%20Info.pdf Helpful press release...

    From my understanding, it isn't as hostile as you put it. Because of the US Air/ AA merger, AA has way too many gates in terminal B (18 disconnected gates to be exact). With the terminal B project breaking ground in March, 2017, AA will be going down to 12 gates. Southwest will take over...

    I think that Delta is trying to take advantage of a few things: 1. booming economy in boston (duh) 2. counter B6. Personally, I'm a believer that Jetblue is going to continue to expand dramatically and become a major nationwide US airline. Now that Jetblue is having some overlap with delta's...

    Credit goes to AlexinWA on airliners.net: http://www.airliners.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1351193 Here is Delta's 2017 summer calendar for logan. 2017 is looking like a new record year for logan! I'm also excited that Delta wants to increase this by another 25 departures per day by 2018...

    On the upside, I think that 14/32 will be much more useful in the next few years than i than been. The CS100 (new Bombardier plane ) can land on a 4000 ft runway. Delta has ordered 75 of them. Delta may chose to put some in boston to take advantage of the shortest taxi ride ever from 32/14 to...

    While the hyatt is royally inconvenient, I'm more talking about the 500-600ft between the end of the runway and just before the airport wall. If it could be extended by that much, I think that it could become pretty heavily used for landing a319s, a320s, 737-7, 737-8, cs100, e170, e175, and...

    Apologies for bumping the thread with no news other than a question - Why doesnt logan expand 32/14 to be 1.1 mi, otherwise known as the minimum landing area of the 737-8 and 737-7? With the minimum landing areas shrinking a little with the Max, I think it would make sense to expand it by about...

    South Station Tower | South Station Air Rights | Downtown

    Re: South Station Tower I can't believe in saying this, but i wish it was not approved. There a lot of things wrong with this: 1. design looks awful on/near the historic south station building 2. looks bad from multiple angles from near and a far 3. would much rather see the tenant of this...
