VAA
loads on YVR were excellent all season (full flights) so surprised that they have not bothered to expand Canada more but are now dumping her for the 2nd time

as for NRT again always good loads (J and W too)
that's a big surprise as it was an old flagship route.

CPT
VAA has bu**ered about with this route since year dot.
Y loads last season dropped off big time but the J & W were VERY busy
How long is the betting before they bring it back again lol

LAX
after 20 odd years they FINALLY get to build a Clubhouse but ditched the 2nd daily rotation!
the movers, shakers & celebs deserted VAA many moons ago so maybe this is an attempt to woo them back?

HKG & JNB should have been double daily years ago - how long before they
get the chop?

DXB has dropped off a lot and Lagos makes a fortune so again why not LOS double daily?


the A340-600 was disappointing and did not perform & the -300's are well past it but they runs on fumes (cheap to run and acquire but expensive now to maintain)
The fleet now is very ''bitty'' to say the least

Delta-Virgin?
I foresee more changes ahead

SRB is widely rumoured to have said to a previous Director,
''what have you done to my airline''
