Boston Aviation

If you've ever dreamed to travel to Raleigh, North Carolina, right now is probably the best time there has ever been. Just weeks ago Frontier Airlines announced their plans to launch flights from Boston to Raleigh-Durham. Recently, Spirit Airlines, another low-cost airline, has also announced its intention to start flying the route. The airline plans to fly the route daily on an Airbus A319 beginning May 2, 2019. The Boston - Raleigh route has doubled the number of carriers from two to four in a matter of weeks. Good luck to Spirit Airlines on their new route! Source:  www.routesonline.com

Emirates has announced that they are adding A380 service to Boston. Beginning June 1, 2019, the carrier will replace the Boeing 777-300ER with an Airbus A380-800 to deal with the increased amount of travelers during the summer months. The airline will revert back to the Boeing 777-300ER after September 30, 2019. This is a HUGE increase in capacity as there will be 135 more seats than on the Boeing 777-300ER. This is also a great bonus for passengers, as the Emirates A380 is known for its lavish onboard showers and bars. It's nice to hear that Boston will have its second scheduled A380 service.
