DLD 434: Trust buster

Aerial view of an airport with multiple runways, taxiways, and aircraft parked near terminal buildings. The image shows a large runway marked with the number 23, various airport facilities, and surrounding urban areas with buildings and roads. The wing of an airplane is visible in the foreground, indicating the photo was taken from an aircraft in flight. The image is credited to @WandrMe.

JetBlue and American Airlines have a lot of work to do if they’re going to keep the NEA alive. A judge ruled it illegal last Friday, setting up all sorts of challenges for the carriers.

DLD 418: Flying on funky wings

Alt text: A serene landscape featuring a field with patches of snow in the foreground and a line of trees in the distance. The sky is filled with dramatic clouds, and the sun is partially obscured, casting rays of light through the clouds, creating a beautiful and tranquil scene.

New wing designs, and new engines hanging from them, could change the way we fly. Or at least make it more efficient.

DLD 396: So much revenue, but what about profit?

The image shows a view from an airplane window during takeoff or landing. The wing of the airplane is visible in the foreground, with the "jetblue.com" logo on the engine. Below, there is a runway and taxiway with another blue airplane on the ground. In the background, there is a body of water and a coastline with buildings and greenery.

Airlines raked in revenue in Q2, but not all of them reported a profit. And that raises a lot of bigger picture questions.

DLD 353: Close connections

The image shows an aerial view of the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C. In the foreground, there are trees and buildings. Three helicopters are flying in formation, and a commercial airplane is also visible in the sky. The sky is partly cloudy. The image has text in the bottom right corner that reads "PaxEx.Aero || @WandrMe."

An irrational amount of discussion about connecting flights takes over this episode. But, in our defense, one of you asked about it.
