Been digging through HA’s 2025 load factors and some of the shifts are pretty telling. West Coast stuff still looks solid, and Japan feels like the anchor again. HND and KIX sound like they’re finally in a good groove. The cuts are the interesting part. FUK and ICN apparently...

Looking at a wild routing from Dubai to Boston that connects through Beirut and Rome. The layover in Lebanon would be around 8 hours. Would that raise any issues when going through US immigration later, or is it fine as long as I stay airside?

Pretty pumped about the new Alaska routes especially the ones in and out of SAN. My family’s in DFW, and flying standby on those DFW–SEA flights is always risky. Hoping this takes a bit of pressure off that route. Maybe the new SAN–SEA flights will stay a little easier to catch…...

Looks like Alaska is bumping Seattle–Seoul from 5x to 6x weekly starting March 30, 2026. Honestly a little surprising after all the chatter about weak loads and BOGO promos, but clearly they’re not pulling back. Curious to see if this means more award space or better fares,...

Delta Air Lines will permanently terminate its service to Midland International Air & Space Port (MAF) effective November 8, 2025, citing consistently low demand on the Austin–Midland route with load factors under 60%. The carrier has operated three daily flights since launching...

I stumbled on this article about new Delta Europe routes and had to share the exciting news. Delta Airlines just announced they're expanding their European presence from Boston with two new routes starting in summer 2026. This is part of their growing investment in Boston...

Just saw that United is adding 13 new routes from Denver in 2025, and I’m stoked about the diversity. You've got everything from small-town revivals like Pierre and Watertown to international flair with a direct flight to Rome starting May 1. As someone who uses DEN often, I’m...
