Description

Move over Frontier, jetBlue also has its eye on Spirit and makes a bid to buy it. Of course we have opinions on this  - would a jetBlue/Spirit merger help or complicate jetBlue’s current operational issues? Would the cost of reconfiguring all of Spirit’s aircaft be worth it? Would the merger be denied because the two control so much New York to Florida traffic? Listen to what we think jetBlue’s master plan may be.  Drew talks about Mainline and Express  and how branding and customer products are similar but flight operations and dispatch are separate. IATA’s Summer and Winter seasons and slot allocationsCathay Pacific resumes pilot cadet training programPhillipine Airlines aims to be in Asia’s top 3We end the episode laughing about how Condor’s new livery is so bad,…it’s good.
