767

[gazpodel]

Does any real-life airline use a 767 on short range hops between say for example, Stansted to holland/germany etc??? just curious having done so in fs2004, I think it might be unrealistic!

[KGEG]

Yes. In Japan they do, All Nippon Airlines. Of course they use the 747 for high capacity city hops also, and even the 777. As far as Stansted, it appears the only 767 out of their consistently is UPS to Louisville. The largest passenger flights appears to be BAW 747 flights to Frankfurt and Cologne. All the rest are 737's, A319's and 320's, Dash 8's and FedEx MD-11's.

It was quiet common in the 1990s to see Boeing 767s of British Airways doing very short scheduled flights between London and Paris for example.

Ha, I was just about to edit my last post to say that. Yes, out of Heathrow they fly the 767 to Paris. But then the shortest ones after that are Rome, Moscow, and Larnaca. The only consistent one out of Gatwick is to Tel-Aviv.

I know that UA and AA uses some 767 for flights from ORD to New York and Denver

Back in the day (as in, 10 years ago or so), Delta used to run over 50 flights per day from Atlanta to Florida (combined between JAX, FLL, MCO, MIA, TPA, PBI, RSW).

In the U.S. the 767s are often used on short domestic hops, (some as repositioning flights, but due to the geography of the nation, it is also easy to do so as regularly scheduled flights). A prime example would be that of Delta. Before the retirement of the 767-200s as well as before massive influx of smaller aircraft from the NW merger, PBI would often see 767s running routes to ATL. FLL still sees healthy amounts of 767s doing the runs to ATL as well. IIRC, MCO also gets 767s on the MCO-ATL routes.

As for AA, the 767s seldom still do, but have occasionally been seen doign the MIA-MCO route. 767s often fly to DFW from MIA.

US has 767-200ERs still in the fleet, and probably end up running some of the routes between PHL, DCA, and CLT.

SAS used their Boeing 767s on short intra-Scandinavian and European flights too . These flights were scheduled between the longhaul services of course.

Aer Lingus operated their (short-lived) Boeing 767s between Dublin and London.

just wondering...i drive passed FLL at least twice per day on 95 for the last three years, and i've never seen a 767 there. m-80's 73's, 75's scarebuses, but no 76's

It depends what you call a short hop really!

Obviously its used in Europe and the US, but down under in Aus they are used for legs of 470kms daily (Melbourne to Canberra), and every 15 mins/30 mins between MEL and SYD (at about 700km).

BA uses 767 from LHR to FRA.
GVA was also a 767 on some weekly flights last year.

No, no longer at all flights. Today most flights are run by Embraers, A319 or A320, seldom by 321 (has replaced the 757 now). Some years ago, flights from FRA to LHR regularly were flown by B767.

We run a 767 on Melbourne-Canberra, scheduled at 1:05 but commonly flown in about 40 minutes.

I didn't say ALL flights. FRA has still a daily 767 and GVA had one during the winter schedule

[Peter Kesternich]

You can still find BA 767s used between LHR and DUS from time to time.
