Wow......was trying to book LGA-ORD next week and the "Shuttle" schedules are awful this month.....infrequent service, RJ's, A319's with only 8F......WTH? Does AA not understand that business travel starts back up after the holidays? Back to the DL Shuttle which is still hourly and all mainline.

DL has 13 flights, AA has 12, and I find the E 175 and DL 717 pretty comparable.

You complain about an RJ and you complain about a small mainline aircraft as well, and you complain that 12 runs a day is insufficient. What exactly would be satisfactory to you? 767-300s on the half hour? Or would those take too long to board? Not sure how 8F, 12F, or 24F affects you if you are buying first class. I don't think AA believes it is in the business of optimizing aircraft type to ensure you get a free upgrade. |
Was excited about B6 filling the NYC hole, but it'll be neat if AS also ends up adding a bunch more JFK flights in the name of improving OW connectivity given how many OW airlines fly to JFK. SAN's not a bad start.

Poor SAN. We used to have daily 763 flights to JFK, then it went 737 MAX and then nothing. At least AS is in Terminal 2 unlike B6, which is with the low-rent airlines in Terminal 1.
But, as a SAN based flier, if I'm flying J to Europe I'm not going to want to take AS to JFK. In the back of the bus, maybe. Oh, and we have to drive to LAX or fly through PHX now. Does AA hate us because of our perfect weather?!? |
Thought of this thread when reading today about AA losing 7 JFK slots because they didn't realize they had them after the US merger. :rolleyes: Is there an alternative history where they would have had those extra slots and could have been relevant in NYC?

While the news didn't shock me it does make me wonder exactly what level of incompetence would be necessary to get the attention of the board of directors.
Apparantly, it's pretty hard to get fired, have your bonus curtailed or otherwise have your membership in "the club" revoked. |
