Are they going to pre-clear in Frankfurt? Providence doesn't have much immigration/customs capability.
Only country with pre-clearance in Europe is Ireland (Shannon and Dublin Airports).

I also Googled in vain to find any reference to new/expanded customs-immigration facilities at PVD (it seems they might have a phone number there, but only for the Pre-Check stuff). No contracts, no self-promoting "ready for business" PR.Only country with pre-clearance in Europe is Ireland (Shannon and Dublin Airports).

So I suspect this means that Condor will have to stop in DUB or SNN on the westbound leg. (it probably is too small a market to try to actually serve PVD-Ireland by stopping both ways)
They may have sterile areas, but are there ICE staff at Providence. I don't think so. Who should pay for ICE staff to be at Providence to process that one daily flight?
Looks like JetBlue and Emirates might be opening a new lounge in Terminal C.

Interesting idea, at the very least.
I could be wrong, but I believe JAL and Hainan had a combined 90 % load factor for the month
24,738 total seats - 22,289 total passengers
Avg load factor to Middle East - 281 passengers
The August passengers numbers for Logan have been released by Massport
Avg Load factor for Copa - 102 passengers (Aug 2014 is down vs. Aug 2013)
A380 accommodations at at Logan have been approved with 3 gates being modified and taxiways being widened.

Good that Logan is keeping up with the times, but already E at certain hours in the evening is PACKED (you have to wind your way through people sitting on the ground the departure area [not their fault--no seats or space for more seats] and the security lines are getting bad). If two airlines had A380 flights leaving within 2-3 hours of each other, E would be bedlam.
What sort of poverty is it that they can't afford to call a gate E9 instead of E8b?
