Hi all

First of all, please no discussions about scam/subsidies etc. as we have enough of them in the other thread.

After the recent interview from Sir Tim and again talking about new possible EU-US routes “The attacks by the troika [of US airlines] have made us rethink the model. When we did Milan, 20 other cities asked us to do the same. This is what the US airlines want to stop.”, I am wondering which feeder airline would be possible within the EU.

I know the loads are not that good out of MXP to JFK from an “European perspective" (Pax coming from Europe and not from DXB. Actually HAM-JFK was also cancelled in the end because of no passengers out of Europe). Of course there is still the possibility to book the flights on a separate ticket but with the known disadvantages (baggage allowance, connectivity etc.) - would probably work for some Economy passengers but not for C/F.

In my opinion an (new) EU route would only make sense if there would be an agreement for feeder flights from Europe to [new departure airport EU-US].

Any ideas for a possible upcoming feeder agreement within Europe?
