New timetable - Let\'s see your flight suggestions.

(1/4) > >>

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hi,

We are currently developing a new timetable. Much more realistic and more compatible with our airplanes.

We would like to show your flight "wishes" that you would like to see included on this new timetable.
You can suggest destinations, complete flights, etc.

Shoot! We will listen to you, but logically we cannot guarantee that all requests will be "pleased" ;D

Regards,

EHM-1749 Hector:
Here are some of past recommendations:

Venezuela:

1. Flights EHM7038, 7039, 7176, 7177, 7622, 7623, C503, C502
These flights operate in SVCL which is a VERY small airport with a 4788' long runway, no lights, no nothing.
2. Flights EHM-H1123, H1139
These operate in SVFM which is an AFB not for commercial use. It has a 5970' long runway at 2738' altitude just in the heart of capital Caracas.
3. Flights EHM-H1125, H1141
These operate in SVSO which is also an AFB. Prior to commercial use it requires authorization from the military. I hate to do that.

Ever since I joined EHM I had posted a couple of times this matter. I also suggested to include the following commercial international airports: SVBC (9890' runway) and SVMC (also 9890' runway and my hometown. Please!)

Colombia:

1. Class 7 flights EHM-7074, 7075, 7172, 7173, 7680, 7681 into SKCL but the name of the airport shows Bogota. SKCL is Cali city while Bogota's airport is SKBO.
I suggest to change these flights to operate in/out of SKBO that serves the capital city Bogota. It has two very long parallel runways.
2. Class 5 flights EHM-5818, 5838, B554, B563, C593, C601 into SKBO. I suggest to change these flights to operate in/out SKCL.

Ecuador (please correct instead of Equador):

SEQU is the airport serving the capital Quito. It is quite inside the city. Airport's altitude is 9228' while the length of its only runway is 10200'.
Incoming long-haul non-stop flights are no problem. The problem is with the departing flights. It is impossible for a plane to go non-stop to Europe. I used to fly a lot when I lived there for 5 years using KLM, Lufthansa or Viasa either in their B747 or DC-10 and neither of them could do it. In fact, I used to be in the cockpit of Viasa's DC-10 and they had a restriction to MTOW of no more than 385,000 lbs. They either went to Caracas (SVMI) or Curazao (TNCC) for refueling before departing to Europe.
Guayaquil has no problem since it is at sea level.
So I suggest that flights EHM-1177, 1179, 1181 and H1283 be re-scheduled to allow a stop to refuel.

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hector,

Thank you for your comments. I would strongly suggest that you also send an email to Miguel (Miguel Coelho) so he can analyse this situation.

Guys, please keep posting!

EHM-2155 Mariano:
When I was a child I was fascinated by what my dad told me that Aerolineas Argentinas flew flights to Oceania going across the pole instead of parallel to the equator... Is this possible to add?

EHM-1982 Carlos:
More flights from/to my home airport (LEVX) :]
