The last passenger outfitted Boeing 767 was delivered in 2011 to All Nippon Airways (ANA), but the global fleet is still going strong, more than a decade after the assembly line shuttered. The 767 is one of the most popular transoceanic widebodies in the world, as one of the most frequently used types to cross the Atlantic on international routes. The 767 was made for a specific market gap in a parallel development program alongside the 757. First Delivery October 25, 1982 Number Delivered 1,316 Production Sites Everett, Washington, United States Boeing’s 767 was tailor-made for medium-range, high density routes.…

Folks, please don’t treat airline representatives this way, because they don’t deserve it. I’m covering this because I think it’s interesting how the public’s lack of knowledge about how airline operations work often creates some deceiving narratives. Man misses Ryanair connection in Krakow, gets angryAn Instagram user shared a video of an interaction he had with a Ryanair gate agent at Krakow Airport (KRK), in Poland, prior to attempting to fly to Tirana, Albania (TIA). The video has text that reads “this baldy made me miss my flight when he could have easily let me on.” Okay, first of all,…

There is no doubt that airlines rely on their widebodied aircraft for their long-haul operations, especially on high-capacity routes. Passengers look for comfortable cabins on long-haul flights and will often look closely at what the airlines are offering in terms of cabin quality. For the airlines, cost efficiency is crucial, and sustainability presents a huge challenge. Here, we will compare two of the largest airlines in the United States, United Airlines and Delta Air Lines, to determine which airline has the largest widebodied fleet. Both United Airlines and Delta Air Lines are US legacy carriers with domestic and international routes…

US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has what’s known as the Preclearance program, whereby US-bound travelers can clear customs and immigration prior to boarding their US-bound flight from select international airports. The biggest market for these Preclearance facilities is Canada, where all major airports have such a facility. Canada is also the biggest inbound tourism market for the United States, and we’ve seen a huge reduction in the number of visitors from Canada to the United States this year. That brings us to some interesting comments that were just made. US threatens to “take a look” at Preclearance facilities Pete Hoekstra, the…

Spirit Airlines (NYSE: SAVE) is preparing to exit two additional markets, part of its broader withdrawal from less profitable markets, as the airline enters a complex restructuring process. The carrier will exit the Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) and Bradley International (Hartford) (BDL) markets. The carrier has announced it will be suspending service on October 31st, alongside 40 other routes that account for around a quarter of its overall network. This move follows earlier cuts and reported furloughs of roughly one-third of flight attendants. In the near term, Spirit Airlines does not expect to leave additional airports. Competitors continue to pounce, with…

I hope everyone is having a nice weekend so far! I’m spending the weekend with family, as unfortunately family health issues are keeping me grounded for the time being. However, once I can travel again, I’m ready to go all-in on it, as I have so many products I want to review. On the points & travel front, this week Boeing got the green light from the FAA to self-certify new planes, Turkish Airlines placed a massive Boeing aircraft order, Air Tahiti Nui revealed it would axe Seattle flights, Breeze Airways added international flights, Qantas debuted its new Airbus A321XLR,…

In the westernmost point and territory of the United States, Guam, in Micronesia, is set to have its check-in lobby upgraded by local carrier, United Airlines. United operates a hub at the Micronesian airport, providing a lifeline of international services to neighbouring countries, while also offering domestic and regional links, such as Honolulu. The check-in lobby at Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport (GUM) will be transformed into a new design that is set to reduce congestion at peak times, include new kiosks that make it easier to check in, and overall, save passengers time when they are at the…

Air traffic controllers have tough jobs, and given the volume of planes they handle, it’s not surprising that we sometimes see close calls. However, this has to be one of the stranger incidents we’ve seen in quite some time… Envoy Air & SkyWest jets have close call on approach VASAviation has the scoop on what happened shortly before 11PM on Sunday, September 7, 2025, at Piedmont Triad International Airport in Greensboro, North Carolina (GSO).

The Boeing 777-8F is the freighter variant of the Boeing 777X family, a plane that is designed to replace and surpass the Boeing 777F on long-haul, heavy-cargo routes. The aircraft offers the Boeing 777X’s new carbon-fiber high-aspect-ratio wing (featuring folding wingtips) and GE9X engines that will cut fuel burn, noise, and carbon emissions per ton while preserving the Boeing 777’s volume and payload capabilities. The Boeing 777-8F offers a structural payload of around 118 tons, with a range exceeding 4,400 nautical miles. This will allow the aircraft to target lower per-tonne costs than any other twin-engine freighter in its class.…

The completion of aerial refueling testing with French tankers is another step towards the introduction of the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye in the French Navy. The U.S. Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) announced that this summer the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye successfully refueled mid-air from three French-made tankers –  the Rafale in buddy tanker configuration, A330 MRTT Phénix, and A400M. The French Navy and the Air and Space Force conducted qualitative aerial refueling testing with the three assets as a part of a collaborative effort between the E-2/C-2 Airborne Command & Control Systems Program Office (PMA-231) and France’s Direction Générale de l’Armement…
