Sure. You get minimal yield in that market precisely because Virgin Atlantic has 3-4 747s/day, BA has a couple now and then.. Lufthansa has some... I don't know this for a fact, but I will wager that the one 747 going from JFK to TLV makes as much profit yield as all of VA's 747s going to MCO. I'd much rather DAL have a few more TLVs than MCOs... and I live there. Now translate that to NRT. THe other point is, that I do not know whether any of that is true. You could be right that EU to MCO could be a golden goose... but I rather doubt it.
HVC's are great, but you can not run a large global airline off of them and only them. You have to be able to compete and win the masses.

Oh, and you did highlight the threat posed by our vertically integrated, government subsidized competition. It's a big problem right now for the Europeans. It will be our big problem shortly.

I think some people in the union secretly believe that C2K caused the bankruptcy.
Just my opinion.

Wow... over an hour and a half into the PCS run, and still no results out. Used to take just 10 min or so.
"March PCS Begins: 0700E - February 20th, then runs 0700E, 1200E, 1700E and 2200E daily."
Are these PCS swaps being done by hand now? Is there some error in the PCS programming still that is having to be checked by hand (like the 10hr rest thing)?
Seems every day a new 117 item comes out that makes it harder for me to keep it all in my head on what is legal and what isn't.

"No earlier than 0700E, 1200E, 1700E, and 2200E" rather than at specific times.
