Charles Ryan's Flying Adventure

OCTOBER 5, 2023

Welcome to my trip report on my first ERJ-175 ride! This ERJ-175 is operated by Republic Airways on behalf of Delta Connection (Photo: Philipp Schutz) Introduction Thanks to the airline for notifiying me about the change of schedule, I was able to select the extra stop-over (JFK-BOS) for no extra charges. Another reason why I decided to go with this extra stop is to meet a friend at BOS airport as I had about 6-7 hours layover.

Whether you’re taking a luxurious vacation in the Bahamas or flying to an important business trip, you need to know your chosen mode of travel will get you to your destination and provide the high level of service you deserve. The question is, do you buy an online first-class ticket on a commercial airliner or charter a private flight for you and your traveling companions?

The biggest problem facing leadership in private aviation is becoming even bigger. Growth, that is, and the demands that go with scaling a small flight operation to the next level before it has reached cruising altitude on the previous one. When Tradewind Aviation launched in 2001, our goal was self-sufficiency, and many other aviation operators of our size have the same goal.

I had to take on fuel today to replenish what I burned coming home from Charleston SC. I gave some thought to making the 35 minute flight to KMFV Accomack Airport for $6.03 a gallon fuel. My cheap gene said do the calculations, is it really worth the flight to and from. My total fuel when leaving Charleston was 52 gallons. When I landed I had 14 gallons remaining on 3 Tango Charlie.

United Airlines Pilots, represented by the Air Line Pilots Association, have voted overwhelmingly to approve a new contract. Big Picture Pilots at United Airlines have approved a new four-year contract. They have joined pilots at American Airlines and Delta Air Lines, who both approved new contracts earlier in 2023. Pilots can use increased leverage from the pilot shortage to make significant gains in compensation, working conditions, and job stability.

Flight attendants are a staple of air travel. When chartering a private jet, knowing if your aircraft comes with flight attendants can ensure you are getting the flight experience you want. The availability of flight attendants on a private jet will depend on the company you charter the aircraft. At Latitude 33 Aviation, you can request flight attendants for your chartered jet on any aircraft except for our light jet options.

Here at AirlineReporter we write a ton about aircraft. We write a lot about airports. We’ve dabbled in train reporting. We don’t usually publish stories about hotels. But for the right type of place, we’ll make an exception (HotelReporter?!). During a trip to Tokyo we spent a night at one of the world’s best hotels for planespotting, the Excel Hotel at Haneda Airport.

Everyone has a bucket list. You know, those items that you really want to achieve before departing this mortal earth. Some, you know you will probably never achieve. Others, you know will be achievable with a little bit of work. For me, I know I will likely never be able to say I was in an aircraft that was catapulted off or landed on an aircraft carrier.

When you want an excellent flying experience, you might instinctively buy a first-class ticket with a commercial airline. You may be surprised to learn that conventional first-class travel has declined in recent years. Conversely, flying private has never been more popular — in 2022 alone, the number of private flights increased by 11% compared to the previous year.

End of an Era One of our favorite fly-in breakfast destinations has long been the Cherry Ridge Airport Restaurant on site at the Cherry Ridge Airport (N30) in Honesdale, PA. Like other airport diner owners, Marty and Vicky at Cherry Ridge were under pressure to balance hiring and financial challenges with the increased cost of food and changes in patron behavior post-pandemic.

NAFI NOTAMs #47 I need to declare an emergency ~Guest Blogger Ernst Gebhardt I wish Private Pilot training would include (in the first five hours) specifically saying the words “I need to declare an emergency.” Simply say it to the instructor. Maybe use the push to talk button when the radios are off. There are so many crash investigations that come with a comment that the pilot should have asked for all the help available by “declaring an emergency.
