Maybe to you, but to a 5 - 10 year who loves seeing the planes and inspire to be a pilot. We could have a food truck area plus a playground for the neighborhood. think outside the box!!!

The lot next to MACJets is the best place for viewing in my opinion. Hang out there next weekend to watch the Wall Street billionaires fly in with their Gulfstreams to drop the kids off for summer camp. NEA has some of it too.

Breeze had an overall 87.4% Load Factor for PWM - MCO/TPA/RSW/CHS in March. I'll do a full breakdown by route once the BTS data is fully released, but overall continued strong performance for MX.
 
Any idea how Frontier is doing seeing that they have increased their capacity and destinations?

The official Bureau of Transportation Statistics numbers for April and May haven't been released yet. It seems that F9 had a 64.1% LF for PWM-MCO in March.
 
MHT starts CHS today and the flight was 60% to MHT and 70% down. It will be interesting to see how MHT does as well as BGR. Over saturation? As with F9, BOS added a few more destinations. With F9 only at BOS and PWM, will we see additional routes announced. B6 I give up on them with no additional routes and exit at end of season. With the high loads, I see SRQ and VRB as some adds this winter, possible-New Orleans, Savanah, Vegas.
SWA is BNA doing well? any additional adds? FLL is needed

F9 also operates a few routes out of BDL but of course they pulled out of PVD, BTV and PSM. They definitely oversaturated PWM-MCO this year and their 50-60% load factors reflect that.

My -hunch- is that ORD will be the lowest-performing of the summer seasonal routes given its very bad scheduling and competition from UA, AA and WN from here to Chicagoland.

F9 has flown PWM-PHL in the past and clearly it's done well enough to come back. RDU seems to consistently get 65-75% load factors every year. This will be the first year F9 has competition on PWM-RDU so maybe that will change things.

WN recently opened a crew base at BNA and they've been building up operations there quite a bit, so there's a lot of connecting traffic going through there now as well. I could see it coming back in the future as a seasonal daily.

FLL / MIA / PBI is a big underserved seasonal market from here...Just the right kind of market for Breeze to serve.

A safety incident at PWM this morning.

Southwest 4805 (PWM-BWI) took off from runway 29 this morning when runway 11/29 was still closed. Seems the pilots failed to check their NOTAMs regarding the runway closure and failed to broadcast their movements during non-tower operations

Listening to the recording of the ATC from this morning, there was a Republic E-175 crossing Runway 11/29 at taxiway C to get to runway 18/36 just moments before the WN 737 took off from the closed runway. This could have potentially been a very major incident and it's a serious oversight on the part of the WN crew.

Just returned from a vacation in Traverse City, MI and wanted to share the latest renderings of the Gate 11, 12 and 14 project. These are hot off the press and thanks to Paul Bradbury and Gensler for sharing!

Great imagery. The gate 14 connector walk will be a challenge for some on a hot day in July or cold one in January.
