NWA flight cancellations
 

NorthWest has announced they will be reducing their flights by 6%. Has anyone heard what routes will be affected?

Not sure if you've seen this:<BR>http://www.nwa.com/corpinfo/newsc/2003/pr032120031105.html<BR><BR>It announces 12% reduction affecting American, Asia/Pacific and European routes, although it doesn't offer more specifics.

Thanks for this info. We always fly NWA since we're from MSP. Had our return flight from London cancelled but that was due to military use of the plane. I wasn't upset since it meant that we extended our time in London by two days but I can imagine that some with less flexible travel plans are pretty put out.

Here is what I've seen so far, effective through the end of April (but it could be extended):<BR><BR>ATLANTIC NETWORK<BR>(does not include any changes KLM may have made)<BR><BR>DTW-AMS – reduced to three daily frequencies (B744 stays)<BR>DTW-CDG – will not operate Thursday or Saturday<BR>DTW-FRA – will not operate Wednesday or Friday<BR>DTW-LGW – will not operate Sunday<BR><BR>MSP-AMS – unchanged (but flights will continue to operate as DC-10)<BR>MSP-LGW – will not operate Monday or Tuesday<BR><BR>BOS-AMS – will not operate Wednesday<BR>EWR-AMS – will not operate Tuesday or Saturday<BR>IAD-AMS – will not operate Monday or Friday<BR>SEA-AMS – will not operate Sunday, Tuesday or Thursday <BR><BR>Hopefully it's going to be temporary...

British Airways announced a reduction today, as well. Also going through with their layoff of 13,000.<BR><BR>Details at www.britishairways.com
