Qatar Airways announced a further expansion of africa route network with Uganda direct flights from the airline’s Doha hub.
Daily non-stop scheduled flights to Uganda’s second largest city of Entebbe are due to begin on November 2, marking the carrier’s first new route to the African continent since early 2007.
Unveiling the expansion plans in Dubai today, Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker said the new routes further demonstrated the airline’s ambitious strategy to continue opening up new routes to africa markets.
The routes will be operated with Airbus A320 aircraft in a two-class configuration of 12 seats in Business Class and 132 in Economy.
Qatar Airways, the award-winning Doha-based airline currently flies to 14 cities across Africa, including Alexandria, Algiers, Cairo, Luxor, Casablanca, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Khartoum, Lagos, Nairobi, Dar Es Salaam, Seychelles, Tripoli and Tunis.
From each of these cities, the airline offers convenient connections via its Doha hub to many points on the airline’s network covering Europe, Middle East, Asia Pacific and North and South America.
“And we are pleased to be reinforcing our presence in Africa, four years after our last move there when we launched flights to Tanzania’s capital city of Dar es Salaam. Adding Entebbe provides us with another foothold deeper into the African continent, where we already serve 15 destinations. We are confident this route start-up will be as successful as the others being planned.”

American Airlines will fly 10 additional Miami Brazil weekly frequencies. American proposes to increase its current service from Miami to Brasilia and Belo Horizonte, and to launch new service from Miami to Manaus.
American serves Brazil from Miami to Belo Horizonte, Brasilia, Recife, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and Sao Paulo, and from Dallas/Fort Worth and New York-JFK to Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. With more than 65 weekly flights, American operates more service to Brazil than any other U.S. carrier.
American airlines plan to use three frequencies to increase Miami – Brasilia service from four per week to daily using 182-seat Boeing 757-200 aircraft beginning Dec. 15, three frequencies to increase Miami – Belo Horizonte service from four times per week to daily using 225-seat Boeing 767-300ER aircraft beginning Dec. 15 and four frequencies to inaugurate Miami – Manaus service using 160-seat Boeing 737-800 aircraft beginning June 14, 2012.
American is committed to Latin America and Mexico and is strengthening its existing
routes and seeking out new destinations. It is expanding and improving airport facilities throughout the region, including gates, ticket counters and Admirals Club lounge. American is giving employees the resources they need by, creating marketing partnerships with Latin carriers to expand its competitive presence, developing a new world-class hub terminal for its Latin gateway in Miami airport, and operating one of the finest fleets in the world to Latin America.
In February 2011 American Eagle began service to two new destinations in Mexico –
Queretaro and Veracruz and in June 2011 American Eagle is scheduled to begin
service to Mazatlan and Morelia.
"If we are granted the use of these frequencies, we could begin flying as early as this coming December," said Will Ris, American's Senior Vice President – Government Affairs. "From Miami International Airport, we offer more than 380 weekly flights to more than 30 cities throughout Latin America and Mexico. Our proposed new service will give our customers even more travel options to Brazil, Latin America's largest economy."
American and American Eagle also provide more service between the U.S. and Latin America and Mexico than any other U.S. airline with flights to 44 destinations in the region.

klm flights between Amsterdam and Rio de Janeiro
After a period of 12 years, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines resume direct flights between Amsterdam and Rio de Janeiro GIG with effect from 1 November 2011. Rio will then become KLM’s 70th intercontinental destination.
The flights will be operated using Boeing 777-200ER plane type, offering capacity for 318 passengers: 35 in World Business Class and 283 seats in Economy Class. Flights to Rio de Janeiro can be booked from 15 June 2011 using the reservations systems or online via www.klm.com.
From the start of the winter season, KLM will operate direct service three times a week to and from Galeao Antonio Carlos Jobim International Airport in Rio de Janeiro.
Flight KL705 AMS GIG will depart from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 10:40 hours, arriving in Brazil the same day at 19:30 hours. The return flight (KL706) will depart from Rio de Janeiro GIG on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 21:40 hours, arriving in Amsterdam the following day at 11:55 hours.
KLM President & CEO Peter Hartman: “Latin America is an emerging market. By adding Rio de Janeiro as KLM’s 9th destination in Latin America, we intend to greatly strengthen our position in this rapidly expanding region. Because Brazil is experiencing such strong economic growth we see Rio’s inclusion in the KLM network as beneficial to our business passengers. Foreign investment in the region is increasing strongly, fuelled by the growing oil and gas industry”.
Rio is also an attractive destination for European tourists especially because of famously popular beaches like Copacabana and Ipanema. Brazil will host the World Cup in 2014 and the Olympic Games will take place in Rio in 2016.
Air France KLM’s codeshare partner GOL offers connecting flights from Rio to an extensive, expanding number of destinations in Brazil.

when do airlines change ticket prices
All airlines change fares continually. Real fare changes may happen 3-4 times a day,depending on the demand for that flight and the amount of time left to book.
But inventory availability can change the prices in a minute or even quicker
In the USA reservations are held until 12 midnight Pacific Time (at the most). What happens to unpurchased reservations? They get put back in the system.
I believe this is how it works. At 12 midnight Pacific Time the system cancels out unpurchased reservations. The computers update and this takes time. By 2 a.m. or 3 a.m. Pacific Time the fares reappear online and for sale again.

Hawaiian Airlines non stop flights to seoul Incheon
Hawaiian Airlines launched nonstop service between Honolulu and Seoul, South Korea.
Seoul represents Hawaiian's first destination on the Asia continent and its third Asia destination overall, having previously launched service to Manila (April 2008) and Tokyo (November 2010).
Hawaiian's flight to Seoul's Incheon International Airport will help meet the growing demand of Korean travelers while also making it easier for other Asian travelers to reach Hawaii, a position supported by Tae-Soo Yeo, head of the aviation sales team at Incheon International Airport Corporation.
To attract Korean travelers and meet their service expectations for the Incheon-Honolulu route, Hawaiian is complementing its award-winning "Hawaii Starts Here" inflight experience celebrating Hawaii's culture, people and natural beauty, with a customized presentation adapted to the Korean culture, featuring new pan-Asian inflight meal, Korean entertainment options, and special onboard amenities.
Starting today, Hawaiian's Flight HA 459 departs Honolulu International Airport four days weekly on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays at 1:20 p.m. and arrives at Incheon International Airport ICN at 8:05 p.m. the following day.
Return Flight HA 460 departs Incheon on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays at 10:15 p.m. and arrives in HNL at 11:00 a.m. the same day. (South Korea is 19 hours ahead of Honolulu and the flight crosses the International Dateline.)
Hawaiian will initially serve the ICN HNL route using its wide-body, twin-aisle Boeing 767-300ER aircraft, which comfortably seats up to 264 passengers with 18 in Business Class and 246 in Economy Class. Hawaiian plans to introduce its new and larger 294-seat Airbus A330-200 aircraft onto the route at a later date.
Tickets for the Incheon flights can be purchased online via Hawaiian's Korean-language website at www.HawaiianAirlines.co.kr, its English-language website at www.HawaiianAirlines.com, or by calling toll-free in the U.S. through its reservations center at 1-800-367-5320 or through its sales office in South Korea at 82-2-775-5552.
