One thing that airlines also take into account when evaluating the successfulness of a route is the cargo traffic on that route. Sometimes the passenger cabin is half full, but the cargo hall is full of goods, and that makes it profitable

Route like this is perfect for the passengers who fly economy , who can have more room to move around, i flew on a plane which less than half full, a lot of passengers get the full rows to themselves and lie down to can take a nap

Null Fünf first of all of course he isn’t gonna do a music review or something like that. that was a dumb comment. but he bring up a seriously good point: Wendover has shied away from his earlier content when he made TWL, geography, politics, and history videos. however, and secondly he has a second channel, HAI, where he talks about all sorts of stuff. Would recommend. So you’re both right. He has shied away from other videos to make content on transportation. The video was great and thats why you’re here :)
I think you forgot to mention cargo. Even though paying passengers (and their luggage) contribute to a route, how much additional cargo an airline can ship between two places is also very important to a flight's continuation. There are routes out there that fly few passengers but a ton of cargo that make a lot of money for an airline.

Hey Wendover, just want to say that I super appreciate the cited sources. As a pilot myself, I always find it hard to believe some KZreadrs making videos like these because there just isn't a good sense of from where the information came. That's why I have really been enjoying the annotations in your recent videos; I'm always sure to leave a like. I know it must be a lot of extra work to include the sources, so I just want to ensure that you know they're very much appreciated. Keep up the amazing work!
Can never wait to click when you upload! Especially when it’s about planes! Wendover was actually my inspiration to deep dive into the economical and strategic aspects of aviation and you therefore played a significant part in the planning of my career which has now eventually led me to management consulting in the field of aerospace and defense. Thank you so much for igniting that flame and the impact you’ve made, Sam! I truly wish you’ll do the same for many more of your viewers with your passion and expertise on otherwise overlooked topics that you manage to deliver so inspiringly on your channel(s)!

And he hates Newark Airport
About direct flights: I actually enjoy catching a connecting flight, it gives me the opportunity to see another airport I'd otherwise miss, plus I like the challenge it sometimes brings eg short connecting times.
Aaaand we're back to planes.
Oh its another Wendover Airlines video ; Or is it Wendover Productions 😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing! I liked Delta's flight between Atlanta Ga. and Dubia UAE. At 16 hours heading west, it saved some time. I believe it was mainly used by contractors and state department folks. The flight was always full, east & west! It's a mystery why delta discontinued that flight, 07 & 08. The only problem, was a lot of jet-lag! When leaving America, I found it helped the jet-lag, to stop in Europe for a couple of days. And got to know the best stewardess, Miss Mona Bell!
Very interesting and well done, as always.
It would also be interesting if you made a video about the logistics of Flixbus in Europe!
9:57 was Toronto's Billy Bishop Airport on the Downtown Toronto Islands
ty for including references. It's really easy to just say anything online without backing it up.
i just saw hat your a patreon of internet historian. that makes me love this channel even more!
3:42 That's... not where Southwest Oregon Regional Airport is. The airport's on the Pacific Coast. That point's not even in America, let alone Oregon. Wendover, that's kind of sloppy.

anyone: he- Wendover: HEY WANT TO SEE ANOTHER AVIATION VIDEO?
Love your aviation content!
One of your best videos yet!
Can you discuss how alliance partners affect route planning? I'm curious about the dynamic regarding routes conceivably served by both members. An example that comes to mind is AA flying DFW-LHR and BA also flying that route. Who gets what and how is that decided?
Airlines: “ay gusto, you like the name Kansas?” Gusto: “nah how about Chernobyl?” Airlines: “you’re promoted”
Yes yes yes yes! More aviation! Thankssssss
Good job,11th on trending,well done ,hope you won't stop doing what you love and what makes us,viewers happy. i really enjoyed watching video. You are the best
finally a plane video!
BTW. Southwest Oregon Regional Airport is not in Vancouver, Canada. It’s on the southwest coast of Oregon. So move that point at 3:55 down by several miles. Also, what about “paused routes.” For example: at PDX during the summer months, delta has nonstop service between Portland and London, but when the summer months end, the route stops... until next summer when they open it again. Iceland air does a similar thing on their Reykjavik to San Francisco and Los Angeles routes. And Condor also does it on their Frankfurt to Toronto, Seattle, Vancouver, Portland, and Pittsburgh routes. What’s that about?
Loved the little peak at Toronto Island airport in there!
Totally love your work!
Would be interesting to see how this differs to the process of budget airlines - looking at some of the really weird and obscure places Ryanair flies to these days
Your pronunciation of English cities kills me every time haha. Birming-HAM

That’s the way it’s pronounced in the US, for Birmingham, Alabama, but yes the Birmingham in England is pronounced “Birming-UM.” Not “Birming-HAM.”
