Boston has become quite the international hub! It makes me wish I still lived there…

I remember when JAL flew the only Aisan route to NRT. Now they have Hainan, Cathay Pacific, Enirates, Qatar, El Al, etc. it’s nice to see Boston getting so much love! It’s a great city, with a great economy, and lots of pristigious higer education. It’s cool to see airlines investing in it!

Can’t wait to fly Delta on the Boston->Dublin route

Once Massport completes the new A380 gates in early 2017, Boston could definitely see a larger increase in passenger traffic as well as aircraft traffic. I hope to see Singapore airlines within the next two years.

Yeah. If they expand Terminal E I think we will see a lot more! EK will bring the A380 for sure! And I wouldn’t be surprised if SQ comes in!

It’s pretty strange sometimes what aircraft are used on certain routes. American flies a B752 From JFK to Dublin, Birmingham and Paris, as well as other cities.

#10

I know British had plans to start A380 service in February but was canceled because the new gates are taking longer than usual. Emirates will use A380 service for sure.

757s are perfect for those routes since they can fly the distance with just the right amount of seats. It’s kind of a niche and it’s why everybody thinks/wants Boeing to revive or replace it.

Hopefully BA brings it once the gates are done!

I think it all depends on passenger demand. AA uses a 757 from BOS to CDG. Most people would take DAL or AFR since they take more passengers.

Probably not much demand to justify a 764
