Summer Perspectives: Is US Growth Slowing Down or Speeding Up? – OAG
I joined OAG for a webinar looking at summer demand which you can watch in its entirety right here. OAG did put out that stat showing a massive dip in demand between Canada and the US, but it looks increasingly like that’s not right. Still, demand is down, and it is an issue. How down it’ll be by summer? There’s a bit of a “wait-and-see” game going on here.

This is actually from last week, and I didn’t post then. But hey, how about that Heathrow mess? Yikes, that wasn’t good, but it was much better than it happened during low season.

The fire at Heathrow’s electrical substation at 23:20 late at night happened at the best possible time. Almost(?) all flights had departed and landed. Almost(?) nothing was due to depart or arrive for another five hours. The airport was largely empty of passengers. It was also the quiet winter season. It would have been very different if it had happened at 7 am on a Saturday morning in July
