Looking at the numbers, for example:

United had their highest revenue in 2024, and their profit margin was... 5.5%. Would reducing your ticket price by 5.5% make any difference?

Re:Are Electric Cars That Much Cheaper to Operate Than ICE?

Utilities also charge higher per-kW rates due to the high demand to be able to charge each car at 250 or more kW.

Re:One dead as London-Singapore flight hit by turbulence
on Tuesday May 21, 2024 @01:30PM (#40431337)
There are times when the pilots are expecting turbulence, when they are notified by ATC or other planes ahead of them. During that time, the light means passengers shouldn't use the lavatories.

If you press both the accelerator and brake in a Tesla, it slows the car down and shows a message in the instrument cluster that both pedals are pressed: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/while-breaking-if-yo...

The market is mature enough to have standards for charging, but is nowhere near being mature for battery swaps. The charging problem will be solved long before battery swaps get close to being a thing, especially with the recent convergence on NACS.

B39M is a 737 MAX 9, B38M is a 737 MAX 8, B739 is a 737-900, etc.

Though I agree flying is extremely safe, keep in mind that of those 4 years, two of them were while the 737 MAX was grounded, and much of it was while air travel was much lower due to COVID.

This makes no sense. The Comac 929 is a widebody that is still in the prototype stage, the SSJ100 is a regional jet that competes with the A220 or Embraer (a market where Boeing doesn’t even have a product), and the A320 is not a widebody. No airline replaces Dreamliners with A320s.

If you don't also have Precheck, CLEAR does not give you Precheck benefits, it just lets you skip to the front of the normal screening line.
