I do wonder with the lower performance of the A350, combined with our management’s aversion to larger, more capable aircraft, if we will switch JNB to JFK.
You are correct, I neglected to mention that. As far as JFK-JNB, I would think there would have been an opportunity when SAA exited the market, but before UAL entered it. I think the company feels that ATL works better because it provides more feed. Seems like this route would be perfect for the -1000, but thats just not in the cards.
