How to find non-stops?

I am interested in finding out which airlines fly nonstop from a particular city. I don't care what the destination is, I just want to know what's available nostop, any destination.

Find all the nonstops from STL to any destination on any airline.

Is there a resource that will help with this? Thanks.

get a copy of each carrier's timetable's from their website... electronic timetables from CO, NW/KLM offer this function...

also, you can use the PDA versions... just put in the origin and leave the destinations blank... virtually all carriers use the same PDA software (AA, AS, HP, CO, UA, DL, etc)... NW uses avantgo...

you will however, need to do this BY carrier, not en masse... this will also show 1-stop, same flight# segments...

best I can do for you...

Actually, every flight leaving every airport is nonstop for the first segment, so the answer would be every flight leaving an airport is non stop to the first airport.

So if you don't care where they are going, the answer would be all of them.

Reminds me of the joke - How many months have 28 days in them - all of them

That's illogical. For example, CO flies to STL, but you can't fly STL to DFW non-stop on CO.

Since STL is an AA hub, the non-stops are to most AA cities (AA timetable will provide them). For the other airlines, it's just the hubs (which is a lot of cities for WN). If you don't care which airline serves which route, then all you need is the AA schedule.

Your response is illogical. As the first poster indicated, every flight that leave STL is a non stop. And, if CO does not fly STL-DFW, then it is not a flight that leaves STL, so therefore, not part of the previous comment.

The original question was: (emphasis added)

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Find all the nonstops from STL to any destination on any airline.</font>
Saying "all flights leaving STL" does not answer the question. Bevcc wants to know what the destinations are. He/she isn't picky about which one to select, merely a list of all of them. Kinda hard to buy a ticket to "any flight leaving STL" if you don't have a list of them, right?

The question, as stated, was

I am interested in finding out which airlines fly nonstop from a particular city

Every single airline that serves that city flies nonstop from that airport. Each and every plane leaving that airport is a non stop flight. They don't ask which destinations can be reached from that airport nonstop (indeed, several times they state they don't care what the destinations are), only which airlines fly nonstop from that airport.

It could be argued foeever, but in the end, every single plane leaving that airport is a non stop flight. Are they all nonstop say to New York? Probably not, but since

I don't care what the destination is

where they are going isn't a concern, as the question is worded.

JS is right. I would like a list of the cities. Sorry for the wording of the original message. I will take utmost care not to make the same mistake again on this board.

Thanks to EWR-COflyer for a reasonable reply.

I am sitting here laughing my a-s off. Not at you, but with you. The attached link is for Salt Lake City, whereas the orignal author is asking about St Louis.

thanks for the grin and laugh.

See, that's a different question. There is an 11 page listing of all the flights from SLT at

http://www.slcairport.com/flights/sc...lighttimes.pdf

It's dated Winter 2001, just look for any of the flights that have 0 in the connections/via column

Ok, lets try this again with the right airport. Departure informatin for two hour intervals can be found at:

http://www.flightarrivals.com/cgi-bi....woa/wa/qbastl

click on departures, then airport and a list will come up. Click on one of the arrows next to destination and it will sort them to make it easy to get rid of duplicates. Y0ou will have to do it every couple of hours to get a full days worth.

If you have a particular airline you are interested in, there is a list of all the airlines serving Saint Louis at

http://www.lambert-stlouis.com/aircarrier/index.htm

You can use the same link above, click on departures, then airline and airport, and put in the airline and get six hours worth of non stops.

Some of the individual airlines stand alone electronic timetables let you choose a departure city, then put in the selction "any airport", click on nonstop, and any nonstops from that airport will be shown. Again, it won't do all airlines at once, but if you narrow it down it will help.

Not as easy as Salt Lake but doable
