If you could take charge of your country's flag carrier...

Nothing's wrong with AC, except I've personally never flown with them.

well, try it first - I wouldn't complain about them monopolizing after that

theyre ok. They have streaming...

For some reason I have a feeling Air Canada Rouge isn't the same as Air Canada mainline, partly because their onboard offerings are noticeably different.

maybe... but I really like AC as I already said.... plus WestJet counts - There are more coming - Air Transat, NewLeaf, WestJet's new subsidiary...

 

AC & Westjet will likely continue to dominate the Canadian skies as a duopoly.  They will crush NewLeaf & Canada Jetlines (if CJ ever gets off the ground), which is why they're exploring LCC options.  The last 5 years have been a major improvement for the cost of flying in Canada & we still don't really have a whole lot of competition here.  I welcome a LCC or ULCC, but I just don't think they'll hack it here.  Also Transat will stick to the holiday markets where they've had success.  I don't see them ever tying to compete on domestic routes.

 You are correct.  It's a leisure airline with far less legroom & amenities.  They set it up as a separate company to avoid the huge salaries that mainline employees get because of the union.  It's not horrible, but it's a far cry from their mainline service.  I've only flown it a couple of times (YVR-LAS & YVR-PHX).  No real complaints from me; pretty similar to WJ really.

I'd prefer a new full-service or hybrid airline with different fare types a la United to cater to both budget and business travelers (i.e., as in Basic Economy versus Standard Economy). And the transpacific and European business markets could get more competition from Canadian gateways.

Yeah well, I don't really mind that much. AC offers basic economy, it just isn't a torture place, like united's. They also offer a large network and are expanding, so you'll see many more routes soon, especially out of my hometown , Vancouver!! Don't worry, AC isn't that bad

Air Canada
Only one thing I'd do, Bring back the 80s livery

Although I'm Filipino I just want try out on Singapore because that's the country I was born in.

 

So what I would do for SIA(and subsidiaries):

 

Order some 777-200LRs to help the A350-900ULR in its future destinations

 

Order more 777-300ERs to add more European and North American Destinations

 

Order some A320neo family aircraft to be put into more in China and surrounding Asian neighbors (SilkAir)

 

Order more 787-8s/-9s for more services towards Australia and the Middle East (Scoot)

 

Put future A320neo orders into routes towards ASEAN neighbors (Scoot)

 

Order some A330-800/-900 for long and skinny routes out of Singapore (SIA)

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

What I would do for Philippine Airlines(after all Philippines is my true home country)

 

Order more 777-300ERs

 

Order 777-8/-9 for newer routes towards EU, NA, SA

 

Order more A350s or A330neos to replace current A330s

 

Order A320neos for PAL Express as a replacement for A320ceos

 

Order 737MAX for more destinations around Asian neighbors

 

Introduce a First Class cabin in 777 and future A350 aircraft

 

Order 787s for long and skinny routes like Manila to Warszawa/Warsaw

Well, it's comlicated here in Brazil. Cause there's Azul and TAM and the market is veryunstable...

Gol is absolutely not the flag carrier. See, can sometimes lead the domestic market, bur in the international one it's going down. With new Azul flight to USA from VCP, she is saying that's the new flag carrier, the successor of Varig. But TAM is bigger in everthing, number of planes, routes, strong presence in Europe and North America. And we have Avianca Brazil that is small, with only 6% of the domestic share

Azul, bitch

I'm not from Uzbekistan, but I would establish a privately owned rival there to break the legendary monopoly of Uzbekistan Airways.

I from Singapore so it would be Singapore Airlines for me.

Not sure if you guys are aware that SQ enjoys a near monopoly in the aviation market in Singapore (Silk Air and Scoot are all under SQ). Before we talk about what can be done, lower the prices (and not charge for seat selection on fare;imo it devalues the brand)!!

They indirectly compete with Cathay Pacific on business traffic, you know.

British Airways 

Tell the f***ing staff if they want to get a raise do their job and stop waisting passengers time by going on strike

Same but for Avianca

This is what I would do

Not sure if Aegean is a flag carrier, but I would start a few LH flights and expand a bit and massively complain to the government about the ME3 taking over our airspace and jobs (oh wait). I would start waaayy more flights from the islands (because those ****ers still have demand in the winter) and definitely some LH full service flights to JFK/EWR, LAX, ORD, YYZ, YVR, YUL, PEK, PVG, SIN, KUL, SYD, MEL, BNE, PER and maybe AKL as well. And when the Greek economy had a stroke I would ask for massive loans, and because all Greek politicians are autistic they would give them to me. 

I totally agree with you, if only:

 

a. there were more people like you

b. the CEO/President of the airline realised the potential.

Simple. Unless you're American...

i don't find that really nice man. 

i don't find that really nice man. 

why

Just realized that America is actually my country so I should do AA lol:

Replace the A320 family with 737max
Replace A330s and 767s with 787s
Replace 777s with 777x and 748
Replace MD-80s with 737 max but keep for a few more years
Replace the Embraers with the e2
Replace the 757s with 787s and 737s

Change the service so that people actually like the airline. Reconfigure all mainline aircraft with more legroom, WiFi, and on demand seatback entertainment.

Free meals on flights over 3 hours.

Re name first class on short haul as premium economy because it’s not first class.

Replace the business class long haul seats with apex suites.

Replace first class with EK’s new first class.

Then there will be no excuse for AA to bitch about the gulf carriers.
