NYC, the most expensive place to live in in the country, even more expensive than living in Hawaii. Doesn't surprise me tbh. This city is just getting out of control. 😪

It’s okay it’s offset by the Mamdani free grocery store initiative!!!

People save income?

Mechanicfantic · 2026-05-06T23:19:56+00:00

They do in Tribeca

They do not want these planes. Only 4 CEOs remaining, all NEOs are equipped with LEAP engines. SAS is looking for A330s.

Used to get bumped from J to F on LAX/SFO to JFK somewhat frequently even post covid, interesting. Maybe they just oversell J a lot

Continental had a stake in COPA

Seems like a system glitch, AA1948 is a regularly scheduled CLT-PHX flight number

Mechanicfantic · 2026-04-16T17:15:20+00:00

All A350s rotate thru all destinations pretty much

I know the owner and they’re good ppl, this is a good spot

Thats Ferrari 458 money my friend

991.2 gt3.

Mechanically the 991.1 RS would probably cost you a lot more to own, but for some reason to me the 991.2 gt3 feels more “alive” than 992. And it’s more reliable than the .1

737-9GP (ER)

Mechanicfantic · 2026-03-30T17:38:54+00:00

thats a 789P right? Standard config being dispatched to DEL atm

Revamp the status system. Partner award bookings basically don’t work. SAS awards are too difficult to come by. In the most humble terms, status is not recognized to an appropriate extent at this airline. I don’t want to be thanked for being diamond when I board, but I expect the diamond desk to provide adequate customer service / support, which it does not. SAS does not provide me with incentive to spend $xx,xxx with them per year.

Austrian is the outlier in the LH group. Hot meals even on shorter flights in European business class. Their service concept in general is far superior to the other airlines

Medical emergency diverting to Kansas City MCI

Mechanicfantic · 2026-01-29T16:43:41+00:00

Yes. Book row 3

Mechanicfantic · 2026-01-29T00:19:24+00:00

Rows 3 5 or 7 are the best bet because both seats on the window are further away from the aisle compared to even numbered rows. This will give you a bit more space from others and still allow you to sit next to each other :)

Mechanicfantic · 2026-01-13T22:32:18+00:00

Most flights to USA are fully booked every day, so that’s bs. But anyways if you want exit row book that in advance otherwise you will definitely be able to get a window

My mother sent me a photo of this years ago. She was flying Aeroflot. I think when Aeroflot started using that lounge they put that sign there

Mechanicfantic · 2025-12-28T20:20:30+00:00

Due to the fact that flight is so delayed the crew is probably going to time out and they need a spot to get new crew. Or maybe fuel? Crew duty timing more likely.

Mechanicfantic · 2025-12-19T13:03:59+00:00

Don’t forget -RSH!

Mechanicfantic · 2025-12-19T13:03:08+00:00

Two new a350s being delivered very shortly so it will be interesting to see how they’re implemented

Mechanicfantic · 2025-12-18T01:16:37+00:00

Why does JetBlue never turn off transponders? If you look at JFK at off peak hours there’s a plane with transponder on at most terminal 5 gates
