DLD 435: An eye on the future

New planes, new routes, and new seats all bode well for the future. And some lines being dropped might not be so bad, either.

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 432: You want fries with that

The image shows a Frontier Airlines airplane parked at an airport gate. The aircraft has the word "FRONTIER" written in large green letters on its fuselage. The tail of the plane features a large image of a squirrel, and the name "Sammy the Squirrel" is written near the front of the plane. There is another Frontier Airlines plane in the background with a different animal image on its tail. Various ground service vehicles and equipment are positioned around the planes. The sky is overcast, and the airport terminal building is visible in the background.

Can fries be reasonably served as a side on board? And, quite frankly, why not tater tots instead??

DLD 423: Are you aware??

A small commercial airplane with "Universal Hydrogen" branding on its fuselage is taking off from a runway. The aircraft has a colorful design with blue, white, and red elements, and the tail features a logo with a hydrogen symbol. The background shows a partly cloudy sky and a landscape with fields and distant buildings.

Hydrogen is flying, at least on one engine. And that’s way better for awareness than some of the other stuff we’ve seen lately.

DLD 416: Going Retro(fit)

The image shows the interior of an airport terminal. The terminal features a high, glass-paneled ceiling with metal beams and columns. There are escalators in the foreground leading up to the main concourse area. The concourse has various signs indicating directions to all gates, ticketing, and other airport services. There is a large American flag hanging prominently in the background. The terminal is decorated with holiday wreaths and garlands, suggesting a festive season. There are also some people visible in the distance, likely passengers or airport staff.

Refreshing cabins is a nice touch, but why does it take so long?? Also, how long will it take Southwest to pay out all the comp it owes.

DLD 409: Sorry we missed you

Alt text: A nighttime view of an airport with modern, illuminated streetlights lining the road. In the background, there is a control tower and a distinctive, futuristic building with an arched design. Several vehicles, including a bus, are visible on the road.

Maybe we’re supposed to say something in advance when the publishing schedule changes. Oopsie.
