A320/A321/737 Transatlantic from Knock
Hi Guy's
I've been checking max distances for the A320 and 737 and most of them would be safe to fly direct from NOC to either JFK or BOS.
However, does anyone know the realistic technical limitations that may arise depending on pax load, fuel, weight, weather conditions, delays etc
Was just wondering as you know there is an increase in low cost long haul ops beginning to arise. WOW air or WestJet would be two i'd day may offer talks to Knock? WOW air would seem promising if they attempted direct service from NOC rather than via Reyjavik.
I work at LGW and was just announced WestJet will begin ops next March, and our Norwegian USA ops have increased, (low cost long haul) so I believe anything is possible once the airline and airport negotiate a suitable aircraft that's available to operate the route. (.ie 787)
