Whoa! AA-KE Codeshare

Well it looks like you got schooled yet again, this time by ThirdSeatHero.
 

 
That would be what, the 3rd of 4th time just on this thread alone you got corrected/schooled.
 
What a smackdown!
 
If you have any humility, acknowledge you made a mistake - or - better yet keep going / digging / spinning.
 

 
 
 

you are right about ANA.... and their seats are even narrower than 17 inches....

no wonder DL is profitable flying to NRT.

you picked out 4 airlines - which is a start. but those do not amount to anywhere near the majority of 777 flights across the Pacific - and I also don't think too many people would categorize all of them as premium carriers.

we'll check back in a few years but I can absolutely assure you that there will be a basis for showing that carriers that have wider seats generate better revenues.

 
And now, instead of walking away with some humility, he is trying to slither out of the trap he has set up for himself by changing/deflecting the topic (DL profits at its disappearing NRT hub-soon-to-be spoke) and by saying that 4 airlines flying 10-abreast across the Pacific is not enough data. 
 

 
Well here is a 5th airline flying B777s with 10 abreast across the Pacific:  AC.  I'm curious what excuse World Fraudster is going to come up with now.

the only one who is pathetic is you and your obsessive need to down someone.

were you really beat up that many times on the playground?

good for AC.... since you undoubtedly didn't know it, one of their prime strategies is picking passengers off of US markets and carrying them over Canada... over both the Atlantic and the Pacific. AC fills its planes with low yielding American passengers.

It is also precisely why DL has added so much Canada service to SEA. DL can play the same game. the difference is that DL passengers get to sit in 18 inch seats.

the only airline among that list that is a quality carrier that operates in a highly competitive market is ANA. Given that they partner with UA which is widely perceived as having a low quality coach product, ANA could make people stand up and likely do well because they pick up so many passengers from UA.

and again tell me what percentage of seats flying over the Pacific are on 17 inch seats.

let me help you out.

for this summer, the largest carriers across the Pacific in terms of seats are UA, DL, KE, JL, and CX.

and then NH, OZ, and AA.

and since many of DL's int't carrier operate within Asia, DL offers a better product within Asia than many of its Asian competitors.

the largest carriers DO NOT USE 17 inch seats across the Pacific other than on UA and DL's 744s which are on their way out.

if UA goes with 10 abreast, then you will have a point that AA has company - but it will also make the difference between AA and UA and the rest of the industry more obvious in terms of product quality.

The Whole Truth is that every poster on here, except you, when proven wrong, with numerous examples from numerous posters, admits error. On the other hand, you deny, then deflect, then look for disclaimers, try to slither out, change the topic and then intersperse phrases such as "you do realize" or "what you fail to grasp" among you 10000 word diatribes. What you end up doing is focusing the spotlight on your stupidity. That is the Whole Truth.

So, the more lies you keep on posting, the more data and statistics you fabricate, the more the put downs (if you will) continue.
 

were you really beat up that many times on the playground?

Why don't you tell me what that's like, nerd?

Nice backhanded compliment to AC (DL uber alles) and nice attempt at deflection/changing the topic.

 

the only airline among that list that is a quality carrier that operates in a highly competitive market is ANA.

Oh, so the fraudulent narrative went from
1) no carrier has 10-abreast seating on their B777s (proven wrong)
2) no carrier has 17 inch seat width in coach (proven wrong)
3) no carrier that has that config flies the Pacific (proven wrong)
4) no carrier that has that config and flies the Pacific is a quality carrier except ....

Ofcourse it all started that AA-JL ATI only includes USA-Japan (proven wrong) before you changed the topic.
 

and again tell me what percentage of seats flying over the Pacific are on 17 inch seats.

let me help you out.

for this summer, the largest carriers across the Pacific in terms of seats are UA, DL, KE, JL, and CX.

and then NH, OZ, and AA.

And from among those carriers you listed, UA, DL, JL, NH, OZ and AA (on 1 single route DFW-HKG) each flies an aircraft with 17 inch width coach seats.
 
BTW:  notice how World Fraudster is attempting to portray the coach seat width as the important metric.
 

and since many of DL's int't carrier operate within Asia, DL offers a better product within Asia than many of its Asian competitors.

 
I'd have to say this is questionable (due to your lack of credibility and penchant for making things up). Maybe others can comment/verify/deny. I've never traveled to Asia or flew on an Asian carrier.

 

the largest carriers DO NOT USE 17 inch seats across the Pacific

See above. You are factually incorrect. Again.

I dont know what fantasy world you are living in but AA has and is still doing cabin mods (in-house and not to a third party in SIN) on the 763s.

I may be mistaken, but I believe that the AA 763 CIP is taking place at PAE, by ATS, not in-house.

 

[Glenn Quagmire]

I can see the new marketing campaign for Delta. We give your coach riding ass an extra 1/2 inch on each side. So fly Delta. <Sigh>

 

[WorldTraveler]

I may be mistaken, but I believe that the AA 763 CIP is taking place at PAE, by ATS, not in-house.

you mean someone made a fraudulent statement about where AA's cabin mods would be done?

and thank you for noting the facts, not some hyperbole that someone has to distort what someone else says in order to claim credit for being right.

no, the coach seat isn't and won't be the only metric but when other metrics are similar, only people on here who continue to argue that coach passengers buy only on price and without knowledge of the product they are buying will be the ones that are shown to be wrong.

yes, DL will get passengers that buy on price. and AA will get people who are loyal to AA or choose AA for other factors despite the narrower seat.

but to pretend that a factor that AA comes in negatively to its competitors doesn't matter is the height of market ignorance and customer insults

 

[700UW]

I believe AA moved the work back in-house to TULE.

 

[WorldTraveler]

can you still tell us what AA is doing to the 763s compared to the 777s?

 

[IORFA]

Stop feeding the loser. This site totally sucks ever since World Fraudster hijacks EVERYTHING! Not worth reading anymore. She is wAAy worse than the incessant TWU infighting.

 

[WorldTraveler]

I didn't make a stupid comment about preferring to lick a toilet tablet instead of flying on a DL 767 across the Pacific.

all of this side discussion about seat width came about because of someone's stupid comment which ultimately isn't even very accurate.

direct your anger appropriately

 

[FWAAA]

I believe AA moved the work back in-house to TULE.

Here's the thread from last year about moving the 757 and 763 heavy checks back to TULE:

http://www.airlineforums.com/topic/57602-767-and-757-heavy-checks-back-to-tulsa/

But the obsessive/compulsive planespotters are still posting on other sites that they see AA 763s fly to PAE and then sit there for a few weeks to eventually emerge with the new interiors installed, leading me to think that the cabin mods are still happening in Washington State. Like I said, I may be mistaken.

Well I knew they were going there for Wifi.
