The first two quiz items both have a time line of the Fall of 1993:
13) Two (2) airlines were operating nonstop between Auckland (AKL) and Perth (PER). Qantas (QF) was not directly operating any of these flights but was instead code sharing with another air carrier that actually operated the service. Name both airlines, the aircraft types they flew on the route and the QF code share partner.
14) No less than six (6) airlines were operating nonstop between Dubai (DXB) and London Heathrow (LHR) at this time. Only one of the air carriers operated Boeing 747 equipment. Identify all six airlines and also name the only air carrier that was operating the B747 on the route. And for bonus points, name the respective aircraft types flown by the other five airlines on the DXB-LHR route.
The following two quiz items both have a time line of the late Winter of early 2007:
16) Only one air carrier was flying nonstop on a daily basis between Miami (MIA) and Cozumel (CZM) at this time. Identify the airline and the equipment it operated on the route.
18) This air carrier was operating direct, one stop, no change of plane service from Providenciales, Turks & Caicos Islands (PLS) to London Heathrow (LHR) on a weekly basis. Identify the airline, the equipment flown on the route and the intermediate stop.
Cheers Everyone!
Time to close out the remaining questions, I think.....

16) American Eagle operating an ATR-72. Yes, AA Eagle was flying this 557 mile nonstop route between Miami (MIA) and Cozumel (CZM) with a turboprop. At the same time, American was operating B737-800 aircraft on the DFW-CZM nonstop route on a daily basis.
