Two thoughts...

1. Pilots, maintenance, flight attendants, etc. all need to be specifically trained for each aircraft type, yet TK seems to be unable to even focus on one of Airbus or Boeing.

2. Why assign the 787 to a "long and thin" route such as BOG, but then keep the PTY hop? (which I understand is due to being unable to take off from BOG altitude with enough fuel to get all the way to IST)
