DUS would not surprise me. Air Berlin is having its fair share of drama, and they are our one world connection partner. CPT, PHL, CLT, MEX, MUC, BER (when open), and SEA are apparently being scouted too.

Do any of us really care where we fly? We should care what we are paid to operate, no matter the destination. The company loves to dangle 'expansion' and 'new destinations' whenever they are trying to screw us. Over 20+ years of experience tells me so. Don't even get caught up in the discussion of destinations; they are a red herring designed to distract you.

Oh, come one. Don't you feel excited about the opportunity to spend 24 hours in a new airport hotel in the middle of a 30+ hours duty? :} |
Beat me to it Yonosoy. Maybe Shep can recommend a good 24 hour BBQ Rib delivery for the DFW airport Hilton.

Probably no Chinatown in Dallas or Fort Worth. On the plus side, you can always go to Chick-Fil-A, except on Sundays. God Bless Texas!!!

come on YUL do it!

Would the 2,600m runway in DUB not be a bit tight?

...great....this is much more important than pay, benefits and retirement. I'm heading to Brussels....the chips and mayonnaise will make up for all of that :ok:

And in a few years when you're told beers have gone out of fashion, they'll pull out of BRU, CPH and DUB and maybe pick another few new exciting destinations.
DUS has money to be made from those pharma giants, it's just CX can no longer keep fooling them with our 'superior premium product' on the 350. EK, EY, NH, SQ fly there too offer way better biz class (and econ for that matter). |
Soon it'll be 24 hour stays everywhere so hardly worth the hype.
