I think I'd rather fly on this ex-Spirit (really an NTU, painted for NK but never delivered to them) A321neo: www.xzphotos.cn/image.php?id...

That was added in one of the recent previous updates, but not this most recent one. I remember people posting that at first it only showed one airport.

The question is, does the Monaco Method still work to unlock airports from flights that weren’t showing a destination?

The real “problem” is that the kids are more likely to be liberal and teach seniors how to get information from sources other than Fox News.

They don’t. But arguably Tesla does because (for the Model 3 at least), the window is part of the door but the frame isn’t, so the window has to slide down a little before the door can open.

Indeed. When people talk about flying in a parabola, the first thing I think of is planes like the ZeroG 727. Not the sort of flying Lufthansa passengers would expect.

Too bad Skyline is nearly useless for tourists. They may have opened the segment that serves the airport last October, but there’s no plan to get the train to Waikiki, where nearly all tourists stay.

More seats per departure is what I try to explain to folks when they ask why SAN needed a new T1 when the runway will soon reach capacity. Lots of 738s/739s and 321s, no more 30 seat props hopping up to LAX.

I can’t really stand them either. Maybe Wait Wait if I happen to be listening st the right time. Otherwise I’ve mostly been listening to my NPR station’s HD2 channel, which broadcasts the yourclassical.org livestream 24/7.

The process feels like it hasn’t been changed from the old days of everyone having to speak to a customs officer after claiming bags. Now you do one stop and LAX has Europe-style options to self select for whether or not you have items to declare after bag claim. IAD is the same for UA transit pax.

Wouldn’t Greenlanders then be subject to those same tariffs and wind up paying back the $10k?

There are issues with the walls. The one next to the window seems to be both a wall and a curtain, and the back wall seems to move further back but also not.

I admit I’d forgotten which side the airport is on. But yeah, if you check Airpedia, Turkey is listed under Asia, not Europe.

They define transatlantic as North America to Europe. IST is in Asia, therefore it’s a transpacific flight (NA to Asia).
