MIA-LAX widebodies reduced

since you brought it back up, I never saw an answer as to why AA flew thru an area that should have been obvious to a meteorologist.

and no one has been able to accurately counter the real fact that AA HAS reduced the number of MIA-LAX widebodies.

on the basis of that verifiable fact, can you explain it?

What a D-bag.

Struggling on the cross as slings and arrows pierce the flesh of the "Discussion Host" when the message isn't well received.

in the meantime, AA's schedule between MIA and LAX reflects fewer widebodies during the winter than has been seen in years.

In the meantime, AA has historically operated five daily flights on the route and now operates eight, plus a ninth from PBI. 
 
In the meantime, AA is not only operating more widebodies between Miami and South America than ever before this winter, but it is short on widebodies as 777s and 763s are being converted to the new seats and A330s are being repainted.
 
No big deal, but sure, let's make it one. 
 
I didn't start the thread... it wasn't on my radar.

and it might not be a big deal.

just be honest with the facts. AA HAS operated more widebody flights before.

And I don't think it would take too much effort to pull up schedules for the number of flights arriving MIA in the a.m. which don't leave until late at night. The number of aircraft on the ground in MIA provides the aircraft to operate many transcon flights.

and finally, AA has reduced the number of seats. and frequency is not dramatically increased.

AA has reduced capacity in order to force up fares. In a market where they have more than 80% of the share, I'm not sure why it is so hard for you to admit that they would do that.
 
I guess it never occurred to you that with the declines in Latin America, AA might want to reduce capacity feeding MIA to fit demand?

After all, matching capacity to demand is what a profitable airline should be doing, no?
 
and yet someone JUST argued about how much capacity AA has from MIA to Latin America this year.

the right hand and left hand on this board are clearly not communicating.

IN fact, AA's capacity from MIA to Latin America for Jan and Feb is down by a couple percent - led by Venezuela, Argentina, and Brazil while domestic capacity (North America) is up a couple percent.

so, no, is not cutting domestic capacity proportional to its int'l cuts.
 
Blah blah blah. Spouting a lot of false and/or over-generalized information by twisting facts and not backing it up. Typical. 
 
of course it is generalized and false.

It is, however, in AA's public schedules - but it doesn't pain the story you want to paint.

Did you realistically think that with the dramatic reduction in Venezuela as well as reductions in Brazil and Argentina that AA would be up in capacity?

AA's own traffic reports to Latin America have shown that AA's capacity is coming down while DL and UA continue to add capacity at double digit rates.

Of course those traffic reports are generalized and false too, right?

AA's capacity in Jan and Feb from MIA domestically is up but to Latin America is down.

AA's capacity reduction in MIA-LAX is GREATER on a percentage basis than even for AA from MIA to Latin America.

There you go again, making things up. Like I said before, fact-checking the things you post before you post them would help reduce the incidence of being caught making things up.

From AA's November traffic report, capacity to Latin America was up 0.6% for November and up 4.3% year to date.

yes, Pardon me.

it is actually AA's RPMs (paying passengers) that were down 3.6% for November and AA's LF in Latin America is down by 3% plus in both Nov and in the YTD.

Since I want to make absolutely sure I am correct, could you verify those numbers - and plz spell them out like on a check to make sure I have them down.

Is it true that AA's Latin America traffic change(RPMs) in November was NEGATIVE THREE POINT SIX PERCENT?

while you are at it, can you verify the Latin America traffic change percentages for DL and UA?

thanks much
 
I assume (but I have not calculated the numbers) that the cancellation of CLT-GIG and CLT-GRU may have influenced the reduction in traffic to Latin America in November compared to November, 2013, along with the obvious and well-publicized reductions in flights to Venezuela.

Little doubt that UA and DL are adding lots of capacity to Latin America - they saw the yields that pmAA was able to garner there in 2013 (nearly 18 cents per mile). Yields like that will attract attention from competition.
