77W should be able to operate CMB-YYZ-CMB without penalties, although it may be pushing it closer to the edge. However, like mentioned above it does not make sense to re-invent the wheel with Boeing just for the sake of a couple of frames.
UL should get this idiotic idea off their heads that opening up new routes to all the fancy cities is going to help them keep their nose above the water.
They need to increase frequnecy in to their existing posts and solidify their position and make a profit first before embarking on extravagant projects.
Operating daily direct flights to Asian / Chinese destinations should be their priority.Last edited by Cayman; 09-05-2012, 08:56 AM.Comment

I think UL management has realised that and even tried to cancel a few European destinations before being overruled. IMHO they should leave most of Europe to their Etihad codeshare and maybe only operate flights to London, Frankfurt and Paris. UL should focus on Asia & Middle East where the growth is. However I think that UL could start a flight to Africa and try market CMB as a stopover to China. Even MJ could possibly fly to Tier 2 Chinese Cities and former Soviet States which have good potential.UL should get this idiotic idea off their heads that opening up new routes to all the fancy cities is going to help them keep their nose above the water.

Maybe a real "TEST FLIGHT" of the Flight Info system
I don't remember test flight being listed in any FIS - as the FIS is meant for passenger info ..Comment

Hi Banuthev, official announcements not let out from SG yet. Rumours/unofficial updates are that Shri.Ajit Singh (Hon. Minister of Civil Aviation of India) is visiting Madurai in coming June. I hope for an official announcement from SG at least after their aircraft delivery. But their service is going to be most likely the first International flight from IXM.
By the way, SG have got approval for 6 more sectors :
