Have printed copies of airline timetables become a casualty of 9/11? UAL, Midwest Express, and probably some others have their timetables on their websites that you can print. The United version looks just like the printed one, cover and all. But, I have not seen any printed copies of airline schedules available from the airlines themselves. Have they "transferred" the expense and effort of printing timetables to passenger's computers?

I have newly printed timetables, starting oct-27-2001 from Lufthansa, SAS and Air France.

Southwest has released not one, but two new paper timetables since 9/11.

I was asking myself the same question this morning. couldn't find anything for UNITED at SFO.
Does anyone knows if United has a print version of it's newest timetable?

I don't know if the very latest version of United's flight tables are out, but I've found printed flight tables post-9/11. I've always had to look hard to find them at the airports, so having to look hard nowadays for them isn't any different.

sep-3-2001 at the RCC in FRA: the last printed UA worldwide timetable available is/was for sep-5 to oct-30-2001 - and asking if/when any future one will be available, the concierge says that none are planned to be printed soon.

Agent at the CRC in JFK indicated that DL would have the December Timetable out.

I'll note, though, that I would take having online PDF documents that we can print ourselves over having printed time tables at the airport. One thing I've taken to doing is printing out the exact pages which have the routes for a given itinerary, and then freely highlighting, circling, and otherwise marking up the pages to indicate possible alternatives.

One negative is that there are people who don't have access to computers to print out the online documents. But I posit that the people who understand travel well enough to take advantage of printed time tables are more likely than the general population to have access to computers. Another negative in the case of United's time tables is that the online versions are in fact missing some useful pages of general information which are available in the printed version (in particular, aircraft seat maps).

i picked up a ba timetable in lhr yesterday

I was just at the AS ticket office in downtown Seattle looking for a new schedule. They still have the old schedule that expired on Oct. 27th. The ticket office said that AS does not plan on coming out with a new flight schedule until Feb. 2002. She said that AS is flying at 85% of it's original flight schedule and that it is still changing. Currently the only place to get flight schedule info is on their website.

Agent in LGA said that AA will have one in December

Daze, since you mentioned Midwest Express .. They had time tables in RDU. I know this only because they are next to American, and I was curious where they flew too.

The question is, after 9/11 how useful are the hard copies? With the majors changing schedules daily, I'd rather have online versions i can download weekly. PDF is nicer than an executable with yet another user interface, but you take what you can get.
