Don’t think it has been picked up here or any of the usual blogs, but DL is running a daily BOS-SLC-BOS A333 turn until Saturday 9/11 (20 years :cry:). Great ride for anyone heading west in the coming weeks, especially any SM/GM members that would rarely have upgrade success on this route. Pax...

DL back at ORH with 1x LGA: https://www.telegram.com/story/news/2021/08/18/delta-like-jetblue-returning-flights-worcester-regional-airport-time-linking-new-york/8184920002/

UA flew BOS-LHR until 2002 on 763/777. The loads and yields will likely be garbage but it’s an important link for their network and will be valuable in courting new corporate accounts. Not to mention synergies for the AC/LH ATI and the broader customer customer base of other Star carriers...

Technically its a revenue guarantee from the Research Triangle Partnership.

Not a back and forth run but could be swapping RONs and/or generating incremental utilization during a valley of inactivity. Agree this is bizarre.

AirTran (FL) in it’s day was the low cost producer and operated a rolling hub in ATL that often had prolonged layovers (some exceeding 4 hours) effectively catering to people who placed a low value on their time. They also had some quirky things like AirTran U student standby. It is interesting...

Due to COVID and LHR closing T3, AA has moved to T5 as of July 2020. The move is permanent, and actually for those of us originating in London with oneworld status the move to T5 is a loss with less attractive lounge options (overcrowded BA vs. superior partner offerings at Cathay Pacific and...

LY will be upgauging to 777-200ER effective October 28; https://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/279071/el-al-w18-boston-aircraft-changes/

DeltaOne finally coming to BOS-LAX: http://news.delta.com/delta-one-service-amenities-take-flight-select-long-haul-domestic-markets Will operate on two of three daily frequencies from April 1, 2018. Separately, Delta has announced that these enhanced service flights operated with DeltaOne...

Just wanted to do a honorary post for the 16th anniversary of September 11, 2001 and recognize the impact and unique connection to our local area and Logan airport. AA 11 AA 77 UA 93 UA 175 I'm told AA intends to move the flag pole affixed to the jet bridge on gate B32 with the forthcoming...

Running an underground subway/light rail costs upwards of $100 million/mile plus the costs of land acquisition and construction of a costly underground station. The PDX MAX system is of course at grade and is technically a modern light rail, but they have ample land surrounding the airport and...

Massport to study a toll/congestion charge/fee for driving onto Logan Airport grounds: https://www.boston.com/cars/car-news/2017/08/28/logan-to-study-charging-fees-for-pickup-dropoff Unsure why they need to spend two years and an untold amount of money studying this, sounds like a nice money...

Nothing overly noteworthy, but the seasonal AA 757 service to CDG will NOT be returning for the 2018 season. For years many on the interwebs had predicted it being cut and it has managed to come back year after year. It was never a great performer, but then again it is easy to make money...

The route has the schedule and capacity that it does precisely because the route is tailored for local (BOS) point of sale and has attractive yields. While legacy AA was big on cutting non-hub flying in the 2009-2011 period (Arpey's "Cornerstone flight 2020" strategy) leading up to bankruptcy...

Well aware, I formerly worked for the company...

Delta to start more new, low-risk weekend seasonal flying: Overall, nothing too earth shattering here. It is funny to see DL take a stab at MIA, particularly after nearly a decade of hearing from an interwebs legend that after the NW transaction DL would trounce AA at MIA...can't make this...

In many airports with dual jet brides certain operators don't use the second loading bridge, despite the fact that it can facilitate an on-time departure and provide a better experience for passengers seated in the forward cabin(s). Different certificate holders (operators) have different...

Re: Millennium Tower (Filene's) | 426 Washington Street | Downtown There are a number of listings in the building that have been active for 90+ days and are priced around pre-construction prices and marginally above what the sellers paid, suggesting people are looking to get out at what they...

On a somewhat related (but certainly less political) note, I was in Baltimore last week and the city of Austin had an air stream set-up in the inner harbor (think Faneuil Hall) that was providing maps, information, and promoting Austin to tourists. Perhaps we should look at similar out of the...
