I was wondering what happened to all the old KAL flights we used to have. It seems like quite a chunk of those flights are no longer in the schedule. Did Delta stop codesharing on them? And second part is there any way to get some of those added back as historical routes?

Probably. The dev site is running on Gologtha 9.0 which completely changes how we handle schedule imports. The good news is that I have a SkyTeam schedule dated 2/1/20 that I will import tomorrow and see what gets loaded in. Hopefully this will fix our schedule issues and while they won't be "day of" accurate all the time, they should be a *lot* closer.

Cheers!

Matthew, did you look for KE and KEH? We are showing back in May of last year, we had 70 in the schedule (KE and KEH). There are 73 today. In 2016 we had about 60.

Thanks Luke. And Kevin it's been awhile since I have flown them but I was going through my logbook and just noticed a bunch of destinations I had flown to before were no longer in the system. Which made me wonder how many others might have been missing as well.

I don't believe we have a Seoul -to- Jeju round trip flight in DVA. That's the busiest flight route in the world.

There's an average of 36,877 passengers flying between locations each day, or 1536 passengers every 24 hours.
I read during normal business hours, there's a flight every 8 minutes.

Jeju – Seoul Gimpo: 13,460,306 passengers.
Melbourne – Sydney Kingsford Smith: 9,090,941 passengers.
Sapporo – Tokyo Haneda: 8,726,502 passengers.
Fukuoka – Tokyo Haneda: 7,864,000 passengers.
Mumbai – Delhi: 7,129,943 passengers.
