  1. Jn C Other Airlines want it. It is a profitable business so the banks can sell the mileage program to other airlines who can fulfill the free flights in exchange the airlines gain a very big source of revenue.

  2.  @peesinyourass  Well as the video explain the reason is economics. Having a stop over is cheaper. New fuel efficient planes make the economics of non stop flights work.

  3. Lionel Messi airbus has a plan A321++ and it will arrive earlier than 797. Airbus just don't want to hype it because they will rather sell A321LR now instead of airlines waiting for tha A321++. But airbus has been asking airliners what they actually want and if the A321++ design is able to fulfill it. 40% of the airliners thinks A321++ is good enough and able to fulfill their future needs. So airbus is just waiting for Boeing to commit into making 797 before making A321++ official.

  4. The answer is utilization. Most of the time their plane is sitting on the airport doing nothing. With less tight schedule they can send the package during the time when the planes are doing nothing. So essentially you are just paying the fuel not the plane itself. The planes are expensive thats why they choose cheaper more fuel hungry planes instead of the more expensive fuel effecient model. With low utilization the economics changes and the cost of the plane is more important than the cost of fuel.

  5. Patchuchan unless you fill the cabin with hydrogen that will not happen. Hydrogen need large tanks and large tanks are heavy. It will be cheaper to run planes with synthetic fuel than to run it with hydrogen. Hydrogen is only useful in space.

  6. richardscathouse yeah but where can you find those? As far as I know real intelligence has not been detected on earth or the solar system.

  7. It gets added in the air. If two different signal transmit at the same time the receiver will receive the sum of two signals. So they need clever mathematics to code the signal in a way that the message could always* be recovered. Always is in asterisk because there is a limit to how much signal can be transmitted at the same time and can still be recovered.

  8. Marvin Meins you need a new production line for the 797 anyway. Unless 797 is using a 787 frame with a smaller wings and can be produced on the 787 production line.

  9. Airbus actually has an answer A321++. It will be a re-wing stretch out A321. Some call it A322 the wing will be composite and it will stand taller to fit a larger more efficient engine. This plane will be the true 757 replacement since 797 is slightly larger and more comparable to 767.

  10. 5g is not always faster. In general but there are exception 5g is faster if you are closer to the tower. 5g increases their capacity by reducing the cell area and having more sites to increase frequency reuse. If you are far from a sub tower then you will not get increase data capacity.

  11. Let me guess it involve planes.

  12. Harry Lawson Machine learning is different than ordinary software. It learns from the data it is feed. So in a way training a neural network allows it to form it's own opinion on things often alien to human morals and ethics.

  13. rick rank What is financially valuable and legally valuable are two different things. This fact is enforce by the tax code. You calculate your profits and losses in a different way for your tax liability compared to how GAAP calculate your profits and loses for and earnings report.

  14. Alex C They get revenue form the credit card company every time the card company hand out points. Just because the airline is bankrupt does not mean the customers stopped using their credit cards. The cost of already paid flights is the cost of acquiring future revenue attach to the miles prigram. Before you can get into a business of selling knifes you need to first spend money buying the forge so that you can make knifes.

  15. Derpyderp you are assuming the train stations are right next to your house and in just in front of your distanation.

  16. A321++ a re-wing stretch out true 757 replacement.
