Rumor has it Air Comet will cease MAD-JFK Ops in the next few weeks

[hiss srq]

I hope not. I love the 310 when it comes over my house and I would also think they would be hitting thweir peak arounbd June and July load wise.

Wouldn't surprise me...

The airline has a relatively low frequency on the route which competes with a daily Delta flight and 2xdaily Iberia and Continental flights.

Flights are currently down to 1xweekly and will end on May 25th.

Rumor confirmed.

How many 310's come around JFK anymore?

Air Comet and CSA but now just CSA. We also get the Royal Jordanian Cargo A310.

Even though it only came in 1-2x a week, it should help slightly with congestion at T1. Now if only Olympic, Air China, China Eastern, Saudi Arabian, Turkish and MaxJet move to T4 things can get a a bit less congested there and help the T1 tower controller make his evening less hectic :P

HAHAHA!

Didn't Air Comet just start not long ago?

I never thought they were so fly-by-night.

Sorry to see Comet go...I guess with only 7 reindeer, that sled is going to pull to one side unless Santa kicks in some rudder :D

Actually the JFK Station Manager for Air Comet was trying to find a way for 15 empty ULDs to make it to MAD....So it looks like they are DONE.
