Houston/Dubai/Baku

So will we be waiting forever (whatever the runway length, state of the carousel etc) for the above three "long haul" routes, that BAA say they are aiming for?

Houston: COA &/or KLM - how close were COA to launching B752/B739 ops across the Pond? Were City Star all talk at the time, or was their intention viable. We'll never know re X9 of course.

Dubai: Emirates???

Baku: ???

Lots of talk over the last few years...but with low oil prices here to stay awhile, doubt we'll see them as too many companies are too busy cost-cutting - in BOTH industries.
