Same argument on the passenger count.
747 will can sometimes also result in reduced runway capacity due to the wake turbulence separations.
Oh I agree.
However I would love to see some numbers to back up the claims that GAL will bend over backwards for U2 because they are the biggest and best customer !
Those numbers will be closely guarded but inwould suspect it's unlikely that U2 and BA and vs all pay the same for each service !
