In the 12 months to April 2025, 78 million passengers flew between Europe and the US. That’s equivalent to 213,000 people daily. This ignores seasonality, which impacts fares, yields, loads, and performance. Q3 2024 (encompassing July-September) had 82% more passengers than Q1 2025 (January-March). These findings are from examining data from the US Department of Transportation. When all airlines and routes are combined, 83.8% of the available seats were filled in the examined 12 months. This says little of performance, which is why loads should not be considered in isolation. It is the average across the year. Despite big winter…

In 2024, Mexico’s Toluca International Airport (TLC) was seen hosting Boeing 777X test flights. While the Boeing 777X was not the first aircraft to conduct flight testing at Toluca, it does appear to be uncommon for Boeing to test its aircraft there. The Boeing 777X has been flying for five years now, having first flown in 2020. Boeing had planned for it to already be in service, but the aircraft has experienced FAA certification delays. The delays have been aggravated by a collapse in confidence in Boeing’s quality assurance and transparency after it misled the FAA about the Maneuvering Characteristics…

While other US legacy carriers have pushed to improve the quality of their services, thus increasing revenues and costs, American Airlines has moved forward with an austerity approach. One such cost-cutting measure has been the reduction of services with seatback entertainment, and a failure to move with the times to keep up with quality expectations for the remaining seatback entertainment. Notably, the carrier has opted to remove seatback screens from its A319s in its latest retrofit program. These jets were the carrier’s final short-to-medium haul aircraft equipped with seatback screens. This move has been implemented to save costs. Screens cost…
