News is...Southwest beginning 5x daily PHL-BOS.
Phil, What airline do you think would bring the A380 to Boston?
Hahahaha If Aer Lingus had actually bought any that would be the prime canidate I bet. LOL
Well, that wasn't the news, but if it happened, I'd guess the first airline would be British Airways or Lufthansa.
Oh, I left out...Southwest will be operating the new PHL-BOS flights with A380s. :borat:

Airbus is looking at it as way to get in the door, so they're basically passing them off for next to nothing.Quote:

Supposedly one of the 380's Airbus has on Demo Duty is going out to LUV next week. Rumor is the 330 deal is done though. Someone said they saw the paint rigs for SWA in the 330 hanger over in France.
Jes that is a huge blow. I liked SWA for not buying Airbus cans.
Well, that's the airline business for ya...just when you thought you finally had something you could hang your hat on...Quote:

Well there is still AA and DAL. Remember DAL never bought the airbus they got them when they bought NWA. I still dont like that they are operating them but they have never actually purchases those tin cans. AA dropped their cans and are buying Boeing aircraft. Both companies are respectable in that sense. Dont get me started with US and JB. Disgraces.Quote:

The day Southwest considers anything other than 737's is the day Air France's fleet is a spotless white...
Early April Fools! :wink:
Dont kidd like that or you will jynx it. Remember every sale Airbus gets is jobs lost here in the US.
