As long as the load and yield levels are high in the premium classes, then the route will be strong from a profitability standpoint.

Re: The New Retail Thread Human trafficking is illegal, and Burger King would be prosecuted under the law.

Re: The New Retail Thread I'm not arguing for discrimination, I'm arguing for the freedom for people to freely speak their mind, and the freedom to operate within the rights set forth by the Constitution. I don't agree with Chick-Fil-La and their founder, but I certainly respect their rights...

Re: The New Retail Thread I support the freedom for people to speak their minds, even if I don't agree with them. I also agree with Kent, the people should decide, not the mayor. The best way to voice your displeasure is to not spend money in their establishments. The CEO (and founder) of...

Re: The New Retail Thread So you insult someone because they don't agree with you? Chick-Fil-A isn't dictating who and can't get married-they're merely stating their beliefs. Only the government can.

Re: The New Retail Thread Civil rights? I don't get this statement. Do people not have the freedom to have their own beliefs, even if you or I don't agree with them? You're fighting for a freedom by suppressing another freedom? This was a bad PR move by Menino, and sends a bad vibe to the...

Thanks for the responses! I've looking at Cambridge, Somerville, or even Waltham. I think we might be based in Boston, Cambridge, or Waltham for work. Looking at my salary, it might be around the mid-$30,000 range, with no debt. I have a terrier that is a small (20-some pounds). He certainly...

Having visited Boston for nearly a decade, and really loving the city and following it closely through sites like this one, I may finally be making the jump to this fair city--depending on if things work out. Now, the big questions. I have an idea of what it costs for rent, but I like to figure...

JetBlue merging with AA or Alaska doesn't make sense. JetBlue has a different business model than AA and Alaska. If AA-US merge, what impact do you see on the Boston market? I'm guessing AA (which would be the name of the merged airline) would stay in OneWorld and leave Star? With AA's and...

It wouldn't make financial sense for an airline to fly a 777 from Boston-Asia, especially if oil prices keep going up and up. If the theory of flying 777s to and from Asia were true, then they wouldn't be waiting for the 787s.

Unless the runways are expanded, you will not see 777s on Asia flights; if anything, you'll see an increase in frequencies on that route, or other airlines opening competing routes.

I don't mind the pictures. I think it's something I would need to wait to see in pictures. 10,000-square-feet is a rather large store; should show a big commitment in the Boston market. How big is the current space at the Taj? I'm looking forward to see who will pick up the Taj space when...

If the feed and connection banks are strong enough, it could see additional flights with JAL over time. Also, JetBlue could utilize it's partnerships with airlines with LH/LX, which has a stake in JetBlue. Can JetBlue feed with other airlines at JFK? It seems like Logan could also be more...

Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport Most incubators are rather crappy and a waste. The ones that do it right, are really great.

Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport I didn't know Harvard is launching an incubator.

Re: $1 billion development proposed to reshape downtown Quincy They should after Wegmans, which just opened two smaller-scaled (for it's chain) stores in the suburbs, and get them to open a Wegmans Superstore.

Really? I didn't know Massport have expansion plans for the Terminal E. Would they renovate the whole terminal? Would this provide new dining options? New lounges for the airlines? If they could only connect the terminals without having to leave the post-check-point, terminal space, they would...

Geez...If you mind me asking, what do you do?

Re: Innovation Dist. / South Boston Seaport No disagreements with on the lack of experience, from an investment standpoint, for consumer-facing businesses.
