Agreed that it's been a good year and it should keep going, but these have been offset this year by:
  • cessation of activities by MX
  • financial difficulties of JL shrinking their route network
  • failure to recruit MU and therefore less chance of a mainland China partner
  • LA/TAM merger putting South American dominance into question

Finally, a confirmed date. I was really starting to think if S7 was going to jump ship to *A because there were rumours that LH was in talks with them about that.

Hopefully, AA will consider to relaunch flights to DME so to compete better against SU for US-Domestic Russia flights. With CX's new flights to DME, it's becoming a significant OW hub. Any chance of AY switching to DME?

This will certainly benefit the large diaspora community in the LA area. If AA announces JFK-DME as is currently being discussed on a thread in this forum, that'll allow for a decent two-stop trip; not bad.

Given the choice between LAX-JFK-DME on AA or LAX-HKG-DME on CX I know which I'd take!

Oh sure, but CX accrual on AA is lowsy and their fares at accrual levels are through the roof. I agree service levels are different worlds, but apparently AA members can't have their CX cake and eat it too (or something like that)!
