I’m surprised Hainan and ANA aren’t on the list for SJC

I went off the article, but will add those! Do you know what cities and aircraft?

ANA is HND on a 787-8
Hainan is PEK on a 787-9

Sounds good
Thanks for the insights

TER-OAK has been back since covid they operated in Aug-Sep 2024 something like that! it was operated using a Plus Ultra A332 i recreated the flight in IF it has since been discontinued!

Uh, where did u get Azores airlines from? There’s no Azores Airlines livery on the A330-300 in Infinite Flight.

Pre covid was a diff world in aviation. Even here at JFK, the amount of change is insane.

You can use the generic livery, lots of people do that if a certain livery isn’t in the game

Yes it’s not that realistic but it gets the job done I guess

I find it quite peculiar that MCI-KEF hasn’t come back (or any other transatlantic service), with the new terminal able to accommodate wide bodies, and the World Cup coming there next year. The advent of the A321XLR and 737 max 8 should also make it easier for these long haul flights
