Crotian Airlines is looking at longer term strategy and direct flights to New York, however not with wide body aircraft, A321 NEO extended range is seriously being considered now, it had range of 7400km and initially OU would connect Zagreb and Toronto and add New York twice weekly service around 2024-5. A321ER NEO has range of around 8500km and 206 pax capacity in two class configuration.

Unless both planes go to close destinations like ORD and JFK, when one goes tech the other one can pick up some passengers and the partner like AA can give them a lift to the other airport. <br /><br />Or you can use second A330 on a route that can also be served by a narrowbody like BEG-AUH. That's very expensive, but in extreme case that A330 could be used as a backup for JFK while AUH route could be covered by other A319/320. Not cheap by any means.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-75217066264228529352016-05-24T22:49:02.327+02:002016-05-24T22:49:02.327+02:00to anonymous @ 9.39 am..I am not afraid to put my ...to anonymous @ 9.39 am..I am not afraid to put my real name so why don't you??

One of the scenarios mentioned was JU and/or BEG not getting necessary permissions. Truth be told, they were always Anonymous users, whose "opinions" were rejected by the vast majority of knowledgeable contributors.<br /><br />Still, from time to time, there are similar comments. Now, the new mantra is "nobody starts long haul flights with only one plane". Well, how many would you have? Two? So, one can stay in reserve, waiting for the first one to go tech? That's one pretty expensive insurance policy. Or, if the second one was to fly revenue as well (and of course it should), then, how is exactly having two planes if one goes tech better? One long haul flight will have to get cancelled, you just get to pick which one is it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-14666128898168892572016-05-24T06:27:46.470+02:002016-05-24T06:27:46.470+02:00I agree with the 8+8+4 mix..and all I said is poss...I agree with the 8+8+4 mix..and all I said is possible that the 4 Airbussess could be CS 300 or CS 500 if that model becomes reality.The Zagreb maintenance center can work on any company's fleet, so that to me is not an issue.

Airbus is big business for OU, they need to keep Airbus in their fleet. A319 wasn't most productive aircraft, A320Neo should prove far better aircraft, especially in summer months. CS100s will be used year round, OU needs 8 CS100, 8 Q400 and 4 A320s by mid 2020. <br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-8748913787894074832016-05-23T23:15:16.029+02:002016-05-23T23:15:16.029+02:00:-)

No, postoji čak i priča da nije CRJ900 nego CSerija. Ali obzirom na izvore koji mi govore o CRJ 900, vjerujem da se radi o tom avionu.<br /><br />Što se tiće zamjene A319 sa CRJ, to je nešto što je Kučko naglašavao od prvog dana na javnim okupljanjima (i nije naišlo na odobravanje pilota). U svakom slučaju zamjena tri A319 sa četiri CRJ900 bi značilo nešto manje kapacitete ali mogućnost večeg broja frekvencija (i/ili linija), bolji LF, a samim time i veću proftiabilnost. Naravno popunjen A319 donosi daleko više novaca po sjedalu nego jadnoko popunjen CRJ po sjedalu. No, ako ne možeš popuniti bar 75% A319, onda je svakako bolje imati CRJ 900 sa 75% popunjenosti, nego A319 sa manje od 50%.<br /><br />Još 2010. u Analizi sam predložio flotu:<br /><br />6x A320<br />10x CRJ 900<br />6x Q400<br /><br />dobra alternativa (ali ne i realna jer se CTN ne može izvaditi iz ralja ugovora za A320neo) bi bilo:<br /><br />8x CS300<br />8x CS100<br />6x Q400Purgernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-14323835159469457672016-05-23T21:16:17.486+02:002016-05-23T21:16:17.486+02:00A319s will remain for a long while, well in to 202...A319s will remain for a long while, well in to 2020s. A320Neos will replace A319s around 2023/4. Q400s will remain to cover smaller domestic and low yielding routes. CS100s will be bought to add the fleet, however they won't join the fleet before 2018. <br /><br />Talks with Bombardier have been going on for ages now, agreement is in hands. Q400s will remain on lease to own and CS100 will also be on lease to own, once the last A319 is retired, additional A320neos will be bought on lease to own and additional four CS100s will be bought. this is what I think it'll happen.
