I welcome any new flying.

Added flying to LGA as well... Makes me wonder, would you rather (as a pilot) fly through Sewark or LaGarbage???

AllOva736 05-21-2021 09:24 PM

As a pilot I’d rather never go east of Denver, let alone the dumpster that is EWR or LGA….

Nonetheless, it’s hard to believe that NK would engage in a long legal fight up to one court below the SCOTUS just to tweak the FAA. I gotta believe NK management plans to do something with those gates/slots.

a long time ago in a galaxy far far away - NK did used to have a EWR base... EWR/LGA co-base? I would bid for it

Spirit used to have Turboprops. Spirit used to have a base in Melbourne, LGA, Oklahoma City, SJU and MYR. Also used to do Prisoner transport.

Just say no to co-domicile. It sucks.

Halon1211 05-24-2021 06:04 PM

Sorry for the drift but y’all need to check out the United forum...They are getting 13 hours of pay for the Covid shot. kinda jealous

that be some sweet money to spend on my stamp collection.

Fantastic news. Anything to stimulate more vaccine uptake keeps us all in a job.

Exactly! I still see lots of people out-and-about still wearing masks (meaning they are unvaccinated according to the CDC). Let’s get those numbers up.

I think for a lot of people it’s now become a habit/comfort thing. So, I wouldn’t assume they’re all unvaccinated. As time goes on more people will ditch the masks though!

let’s be honest, the ones without the vaccines are the ones that have ditched the mask :D

That is what I’ve been saying. The say it’s the honor system but the people that aren’t vaccinated are the first people that will be lying about it. Americans don’t have any honor left.

Even though I have the vaccine I think it’s my god-given right not to have to wear a mask...but that’s just my weird thinking.

FNGFO 05-26-2021 08:51 AM

I’m sure the massive outbreak from unmasked, unvaccinated individuals will happen any minute now.

What they said was going to happen in Texas a couple of months ago. We in Texas are still waiting for what those on the left said would happen. The other day there were zero COVID-19 deaths in the state, first time in a year.

Oh god let’s not go down this mask/vaccine/politics road.

I wonder if they would just increase frequency or add new routes out of EWR

Conceivably they would possibly have enough slots/gates to do both.

What manner of forgetfulness is this. Texas has been terrible in the past year with Covid infections and deaths compared to states that had more restrictive covid laws.
lol
oh how you would love to forget reality just to prove a point.

for the record ive been vaxxed for a while yet still wear a mask because you know why. Respect towards others who are still fearful and no were not out of the woods yet. Close but not there yet and people still need to do their part. Dont see why thats so difficult.

Not sure where you get your info.Texas has been about average. Are you comparing a desolate state like Wyoming or isolated island like Hawaii?
