ANA Boeing 787 service

I remember reading something not long ago that ANA planned to start service with their brand-new 787s to SEA. Can anyone confirm this? I'm not sure if they announced a firm date, but it should still be mentioned in this article. —Compdude 17:26, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

ANA does plan to start operating the 787 to Seattle sometime during this fiscal year (April 2012 through March 2013). However without a firm date and with such an uncertain timeframe for launch, I don't see why it's notable to mention the new route here yet. SempreVolando (talk) 06:39, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
Okay that's what I thought. Yes, I know it doesn't belong in the table but it should still be mentioned as prose in this article. —Compdude 15:03, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
Yes. Mention it in prose somewhere in the article but don't include it in the table until a firm date is announced. There is already a hidden note saying so. Snoozlepet (talk) 02:14, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
Is it notable though? Two airlines already fly from Seattle to Japan and it wouldn't be the first Asian carrier to serve the airport. SempreVolando (talk) 15:41, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
It will be the airport's first 787 service unless other carriers have applied to fly to Seattle with 787s. Snoozlepet (talk) 01:33, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
I don't think that's notable - it's just a plane. What about the first 737 service to Seattle, or 757, or 777 etc..? None of those are mentioned, and notability is not temporary. ANA already fly the 787 to Frankfurt Airport, but there's no mention of it there. We can't add the details every time an airport starts getting a regular 787 service. SempreVolando (talk) 03:22, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
Alright then. I was just curious as to when the 787s would be flying into Seattle, and so I could marvel at how dang quiet they are. But since there is no firm date currently, I will just have to wait until there is. —Compdude 04:54, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

Delta's Memphis Seasonal Service is No More

Please be advised Delta will cancel service to Memphis; not suspended for the season. Delta has been reducing the size of its Memphis hub ever since the Delta and Northwest merger. Shakbok (talk) 12:23, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

– An RfC at the Airports WikiProject failed to reach consensus on whether hyphens or en dashes should be used in the names of airports. There's been no activity on the RfC for over a week now, so I'm bringing it here for community attention. I set up this RM to change the dashes to hyphens simply because hyphens are more widely used here on Misplaced Pages. Depending on which style is accepted by consensus, the title of airports can be moved to standardize them. David1217 23:36, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
