that would depend on where you are going and on which airline. Southwest uses Love Field (good for regional flights) and American Eagle & Continental have a few flights. Everything else is out of DFW. of course, if you have your own plane, there's Addison, Redbird....

How far can a commercial jetliner fly without refueling

How far can a commercial jetliner fly without refueling?
i flew from chicago to tokyo nonstop. it took like 13 hours. we didnt stop for fuel so i know that a 777 can fly for at least 13 hours fully loaded. now i have a flight from dallas to hongkong which is a much longer flight. i am wondering how far a plane can fly without refueling or what is the record?

The record for the longest commercial flight is from Newark to Singapore, a distance of 16,600 km on a Singapore Airlines Airbus A340-500 which takes 18hr. 40min.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-stop_flight

It's actually not much longer a flight. And of course how far a jetliner can fly without refueling depends on the aircraft type and the loading.

The earliest flights depart Dallas at around 9:00am and arrive in Seattle around 9:15-9:30. Seattle is two hours behind Dallas, not three. By the way, flight information is available on dozens on websites. Just go to any of the major travel websites such as Expedia, Otbitz, or Travelocity. If you only want schedules and don't need to check availability or fares, Airwise is easy to use. You don't need to post a question here and wait for someone to answer it.

Does anyone know of any airports in the metroplex area other than DFW and Dallas Love that might offer a flight? And I'm not sure how far away other cities are (like Houston or Austin) or anything like that, but would there be somewhere close out of which I could fly?

After Labor Day, peak travel season should be over so ticket prices should come down a bit. You can try different travel websites or airline websites to find the price of a ticket. But I do not see you saving that much money if you fly out of Houston or Austin since driving there from Dallas is pretty far.

It seems that the cheapest option is CRW>DFW with AA/DL at USD427.00 Other airports: * Charleston Airports (map) Best (BKW) Raleigh County $553 (CRW) Yeager $427 (HTS) Tri State Airport $506 (LWB) Greenbrier Valley $510 (PKB) Marietta/Parkersburg $478 * Dallas/Fort Worth Airports (map) Best (DAL) Love Field $604 (DFW) Dallas/Ft Worth Intl $427

Why do you have to turn off your electronics on planes

Why do you have to turn off your electronics on planes?
I recently had a flight from Dallas to Atlanta to Washington D.C, and each time at takeoff/landing they told us to turn all elctronics off. Why? I left my iPod on and the plane did not spontaneously combust. Is it a safety thing or what?
Air Travel - 4 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
They are said to interfere with the pilots' communication with the air traffic control tower. This, however, is not true anymore. It is an old rule. I have a few friends that fly for airlines and say they often leave their phones on the entire flight.
2 :
I`ve heard that they`re said to interfere arbitrarily with the aircraft`s navigational instruments, so that operating electronics on bord an airliner is prohibited by IATA`s regulations.
3 :
Yes it is a safety thing. I can think of a few reasons that you would be asked to turn off electronics... For one, in fact some electronics (cell phones) do interfere slightly with electronics of the aircraft. I tested it myself, my cell phone caused a little buzzing sound in the headset. Not enough to prompt any kind of problem, but it was a bit annoying. As the first person indicated, it was much more prominent in the old days. However, there's more to it. Remember the Miracle on the Hudson? Seconds before hitting the water the captain came on and said something to the effect of "brace for impact". Now what would happen if if you were listening to your iPod and missed the announcement entirely? What if you couldn't hear the order to evacuate the plane? Other electronic devices like laptops could simply end up as projectiles if the plane landed really hard or had a runway overrun, causing injuries that could easily be avoided. Consider also that if the plane were on fire in the air, the airstream would help minimize the spread of the fire, and there's nothing the passengers could do anyway. The flight crew would be doing everything they could to handle the fire. But on the ground, the crew could easily announce a passenger evacuation. From your seat, you wouldn't know that an engine was on fire, or that the wheels were on fire. Thus, you'd have no idea that you were in danger until you heard "evacuate, evacuate, evacuate". If listening to music, you'd see everyone stand up and running for the exits, and then you'd be like 'whoa, what's going on!?' and those few extra seconds of confusion could be the difference between getting off safely, or burning to death. You're right, the plane does not explode or anything. It's entirely for your safety, and to cover the airline's butt in the event of suing.
4 :
The plane did not spontaneously combust, proving what? Yes, it's a safety thing. The probability of any bad effect may be small (it is small) but why add any increased risk?

Dallas - 2 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
There don't appear to be any non-stop flights from Dallas (or Houston) to Rome so you have to change planes somewhere. I recommend changing planes in the USA and then taking a non-stop flight from that city to Rome. For example, Dallas to Atlanta is about 2 hours flying time and Atlanta to Rome is about 9 1/2 hours flying time. www.delta.com You will have a couple of hours on the ground in the international departure city (Atlanta or wherever) to walk around and stretch. You can get up on the flight to Rome, walk around, and stretch. If you want to reduce the time of the trans-Atlantic flight you should fly from Dallas to New York or Newark (about 3 1/2 hours) and then to Rome (about 8 1/2 hours). Your chances of getting a blood clot are too tiny to worry about unless you have a medical condition that might make one more likely. If yes you NEED to talk to your physician before flying at all. Good luck!

does each airline has their own ground handlers at each airport the airline is flying

does each airline has their own ground handlers at each airport the airline is flying?

1 :
It really can be both. At airports where the airline has a lot of flights, it will most likely be an employee of that company. At stations that only see a few flights a day, a lot of times the airline will contract someone to perform the jobs. Hope this helps answer your question.
2 :
Hard to say. Some airlines use their people at their hub airports and contract out for other airports and some use their people and others contract out all their services.
3 :
The ground handler may work for the airline that leases the gate and that same gate might be shared by three different airlines or more. New landing slots are a rare and expensive and are a huge part of an airlines expenditures. Sharing them is cost effective. Every time an airliner lands it has to pay a fee to the airport. The friendly skies are not free. Part of that cost are directly reflected by the cost of your ticket.
4 :
As an accomapanying mechanic it depends on the airline like when i was flying the A340 to Sydney, Brisbane & Melbourne I do the groundhandling with the conditions that if ever I need to have spares and since Quantas flies to us courtesy they can lend us parts and after a while we teach them to handle A340 and then groundhandling was given to them. In Vancouver, Air Canada has A340 but since we have no bilateral agreement they never fly to us, but they offered their services in the end when the company sees it is more economical for the local to do the ground handling, it was given to them. It is the airline's choice but often host country also fly to the visitor so they either get it or another local with the same aircraft, type rated people will be given the contract. Also consideration is the number of flights if you have as much as two flights/day then mostly you have your own team to handle and office to keep spares in case of breakdown.

the only way to answer that would be to check their website on updated flights, but last i heard on the news was that they will begin flights again in a day or so, but there will just be some delays

I bet there will be! they are offering refund waiver for Friday also; if you really gotta be where you're going, I would strongly suggest making alternate plans!
3 :
I just changed a flight that was canceled for tomorrow and after over an hour on hold with AA, they initially offered to change my flight to an early morning flight on Friday. When I asked about the plane, I learned that it was also an MD80. Apparently, their reservations reps don't think their Friday flights will be canceled. However, when I expressed concern about changing to another flight with an MD80, she said something like "good point" and offered another alternative on a plane that's not an MD80. What I read is that there are 300 MD80s that were grounded on Tuesday. 30 of these were placed back in service today. I seriously doubt they will have all these back up by Friday. So, if I were you, I would try to change the flight or buy another ticket (fully refundable) with another airlines in case your flight gets canceled and you can't fight a new flight. Or....you can just wait it out and hope for the best. Good luck.

You should be able to get your confirmation number and possibly even select what seat you want to sit in. Once you arrive at the airport, enter the confirmation number in the self-check kiosk and you can print your boarding pass. I think a paper ticket costs more because of the processing fee and having to mail the ticket.
2 :
Airlines are all doing E-tickets. Whenever you call to book your flight on the phone, or go to the airport to buy a ticket, airlines are charging a lot more money. All airlines have shredded their reservations staff, so it does cost a lot of money to pay agents to do phone bookings and postage. $100 too much? I think so, but I wouldn't mess with it when you can do everything from the internet. You'll get an email with your travel itinerary, and your confirmation #. You'll be able to check in for your flight 24 hours in advance as well as change your seat assignments. And depending on what airline you are flying on, you can prepay for any bags you're checking in.

Here is a link to the DFW airport guide: http://www.dfwairport.com/guide/index.php You can download a map of the terminals from that page, which may be helpful to you. If you are flying any airline other than American, the odds are almost 100% that the gate for your connecting flight will be in the same terminal in which you landed. American Airlines has a lot more flights going through DFW, so you might have to go from one terminal to another. This should not be too difficult. There are plenty of maps of the terminals posted within the airport. If you are on a flight during "normal" hours, there are volunteers who can help you find your way. They wear straw hats, nametags, and i think green or black vests, and they are usually older folks. They can help you if you're uncertain of where to go, as can airline employees at the gates. Good luck and have a safe trip :)

That's a perfect length of time, especially if your flight comes in late. Just enough time if you need to change terminals or find your gate in the same terminal and grab a snack if you want to. But not too much time to get restless. The volunteers are easy to spot if you need any help, so don't worry about that. Enjoy your trip.
4 :
On a normal day and for a seasoned traveler it is very good. However, we had a tough time flying AA. They change terminals for departure very late. Note that these are not gates, but terminals as well. We ended up changing 4 times once. If not, AA then may be better. In general, that is plenty of time, if the flight is on time. If not you could scramble a little. Let the air hostess know that you are traveling by yourself for first time and you need good directions to get to the next terminal and you should be fine.
5 :
Yes, just get directions from the internet or a GPS and you'll be fine.
6 :
All of the eating places are inside security and there is a free people mover that runs between the terminals over the top to take you between terminals and to give you a great view of the airport if you have extra time. The D shaped terminals have good seating out of the flow of traffic with WiFi hot spots and outlets for power if you wish to go that way.

What airline usually has the cheapest flights

What airline usually has the cheapest flights?
I need a cheap flight from Dallas to Chicago and I need to know what would be cheapest.

1 :
Many can be cheap Try using expedia, and checking the flight for several different days - the prices vary widely.
2 :
Southwest usually has the cheapest. I travel a lot and I love Southwest. Their flights are usually much cheaper than other lines and they don't charge for the first two bags. Other lines charge about $20 per bag. Plus I love their unique boarding procedure, where you check in and get a number, line up according to that number, and then choose your own seat.
3 :
delta or AA
4 :
I would look into Southwest Airlines. They have a hub in Midway and fly out of Love Field.
5 :
There is no specific flight which provides cheapest ticket. Price of tickets depends upon many things. It vibrates according to situation. Airlines flights divided in to two parts Economy, Business. And in economy class the rate is little bit difference. It̢۪s better to call a travel agent for the discount offer. Although you can compare the different Airlines fares by using travel planner. View this site the flights offer is classified in to economy, business http://www.cheapticket.co.uk/australia/adelaide.aspx This type of site is very good to customer. It̢۪s clearly showing the flights and their economy fares. Hope it will help you to find cheapest ticket from Dallas to Chicago :)

Watch out for the cut and pasters who plug their own sites, those are never the cheapest as there is an extra level of commission. Someone mentioned kayak and orbitz, which is great advice, but redundant as kayak is a search engine that searches orbitz (as well as priceline nad expedia) amongst dozens of sites. Sometimes any f theose three are the best and kayak will find it. Right now they show AMerican has nonstops for 283 including taxes. If your 272 price includes taxes and is still available grab it, if not 283 isnt that much worse

Is it possible to switch a flight destination and person flying?
A week ago, my boyfriend bought plane tickets for a trip from Florida to Dallas to visit me. Now it looks like he might not be able to go. I will still have that week off no matter what, so what I want to know is: would it be possible to change the flight to be from Dallas to Florida, and to put my name on the ticket, so I can visit him instead?
Air Travel - 4 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
there will be change fees (of course) do not know if you can change the name on the ticket - ask the airline all the best
2 :
You need to find out the carrier and call their customer service. Typically the answer is NO, but some airlines have a change fee, if the ticket was booked through 3rd parties like hotwire, travelocity etc. then you cannot and you have to buy a new ticket. The carriers may provide a flight credit, to the original passenger or they may change the flight details at a surcharge normally $75 and up. Plus the difference in cost of flying from Florida to Dallas instead.
3 :
Most airlines do not allow a name change on tickets. In fact, it's possible none of them do. You may be able to cancel the flight, get a credit (minus considerable fees), then use the credit to buy a new ticket under a different name. Call the airline.
4 :
Most if not all airlines do not allow you to change the name on the ticket. Your boyfriend would have to cancel his ticket, possibly incur a penalty and instead receive a travel voucher to be used for a future flight. Then you would have to buy your ticket to go visit him.

Will I Be Able to Catch My Flight OnTime?
I'm flying to DC from London next week but I'm gonna have to transfer at Cleveland Hopkins Intl Airport. The thing is I've only got 1 hour and 40 mins between my arrival in Cleveland and my flight to DC and in that time I need to go through immigrations (I don't know if Cleveland gets many flights on a daily basis), identify my luggage and check in again. Obviously the airline says I'll be fine but I think thats bull. The same sort of thing happened to me in December 2005 on the same airline, I had to stop at Houston, TX for two hours before catching my flight to Dallas, TX. I was the last one to get on the plane (after running for several minutes mind you) and my luggage didn't arrive till the next day.

You could research the current flight rates on Travelocity, Hotwire, Sidestep or any of the airline websites. Then you could go to priceline and try to undercut the going rate by naming your own price. You have to be fairly close to the going rate though or they will refuse your bid. Try to fly on Tue, Wed or Thurs if you can. Red-eye flights are cheapest.
2 :
Have you tried Mobissimo? Mobissimo checks the same places that Orbits & Travelocity does, as well as several sites they do not such as Southwest.
3 :
Check Southwest Airlines. Unfortunately the travel search engines like "Orbitz", "Expedia" or "Travelocity" don't carry Southwest Airlines.
4 :
cheaptickets.com; orbitz.com. I've gotten the best results from these two sites. If you have more time, you can check the others (travelocity and what not). Book in advance (at least 2 wks prior to departure date) and mid-week to secure better rates. Also, if u go during a major holiday, u risk getting worse rates.

By the tone of your questions I take it you have never flown before. Flight time is about 1 hour. give or take. what was it like. crowded. seats are cramped. but I love flying. get a window seat if you can. not one over the wing that will block your view but one where you can see the wing and the ground as well. You won't get a meal on such a short flight but the attendants will probably serve a drink shortly after takeoff (Soda, OJ, Apple Juice etc...) work your jaw like you are chewing gum, or better yet get a piece of chewing gum for your flight. do this on takeoff and landings. working your jaw helps equalize pressure in your ears during the rapid changes in altitude. an Hour flight is very short. I recently had to make two roundtrip flights to SE Asia. Houston-Los Angeles-Taiwan-Cambodia and back. Houston-Detroit-Tokyo-Bangkok and back the cross pacific flight is around 17 to 22 hours Funny thing with jet travel and time zones. When I flew from Narita Airport in Tokyo, Japan back to the States, I flew 19 hours, and landed 2 and a half hours BEFORE I took off on the SAME DAY. With Divorced Parents living in different States (TX, MO) I grew up flying commercial every summer back and forth. I have flown out of San Antonio, Dallas, and Houston I have flown all over the US from TX, to MO, to FL, and CA during my time in the USN. I even got a round the world trip First half by Ship to the Persian Gulf then Second half by Air from the Gulf back to stateside hospital. I flew to and from Germany and the States as an Army Brat. I flew home from Japan when I got out of the Navy. and my two previously mentioned trips to Cambodia and Thailand to get my VISA for my wife.

Your basically looking at a 3+ stopover situation. The only on I could think of would be a DFW - YYZ (Toronto) - YMM (Fort McMurray) on Air Canada, but chances are that the flight between YYZ - YMM would be seasonal & only available during summer. Another option would be flying a low cost airline (ex. Southwest) & flying to a major west hub, then flying WestJet up to Calgary or Edmonton to connect, or even drive up to Fort McMurray. WestJet's policy qualifies 12 years + allowed to travel on their own without charge so no increase on fare. Which, out of a random search, would come to $479 (USD) for LAX to YMM. Then a flight from DAL (Dallas - Love Field) to LAX would be $179 (USD) The price of air travel in Canada is much high than in the United States so better choice to fly up to YEG (Edmonton) & get ride to Fort McMurray if possible. In all the guestimated amout is $658 (USD) ONE WAY, this was preceived as if you were travelling on the 10th of March & your YYC - YMM flight would have been not until the next day.

A flight leaves from Oakland to Dallas one morning on a 1200-mile flight

A flight leaves from Oakland to Dallas one morning on a 1200-mile flight?
On the way there, a tailwind helps them make their journey in only 2 hours. The return trip is made in stormy weather against a headwind three times as strong. If the return trip takes three hours, what is the speed of the wind during the flight from Dallas to Oakland
Air Travel - 2 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
150 mph =] If x (the speed of the plane) plus y (the tailwind) times 2 (the time) is equal to 1200 (distance), then x + y = 600. Similarly, if 3 (x - 3y) = 1200, x - y = 400. Using simultaneous equations, we get that x = 550 and y = 50. Since the returning tailwind was 3x as strong, y = 3 (50) = 150 mph.

John, who answered , I wish I had half your brain. One variable is ATC and the time it takes can also be factored by the vectoring from way point to way point as well as air speed restrictions. That will add a few more X Y and Z to the equations!

I want to fly from LAX to Dallas, tickets are $40 cheaper if I ticket to Houston. The flight stops in Dallas. What happens if I don't take the second leg and get off in Dallas? I will not check any luggage.

1 :
If you miss the second flight, you are SOL. Why would you do that, Houston is hours from the Ugly Dallas
2 :
You'll simply be shown as a no-show for the 2nd sector. If it's only a one way ticket you shouldn't have any problems, although if you go for a return, your problems start the minute you miss the flight to Dallas, as the rest of the trip will be cancelled.
3 :
If you, as explained here you buy a OW (one-way) the most that can happen is that the airline charges you the difference to your credit card. BUT, if you buy an R/T (return ticket), the moment you miss one leg the whole itinerary is cancelled! And considered forfeited.
4 :
Assuming the plane stops at the gate to allow passengers off and on (not just for fuel), and you have all your carry-on items, nothing will happen. Just make sure that Dallas is the stop on the one-way flight and you'll be fine.
