New Airline Routes

[Foreigner]

Interesting review of new routes over the past 12 months.

These Were the Biggest New Airline Routes Launched in 2017

Some 2018 routes have been well-publicised. Expecting more announcements during the course of the year.

Am confused - when was the linked article? It mention hopes some deals could be approved "early 2017"

Its dated December 30 2017 and seems to be talking about the full calender year of 2017. 99% of it irrelevant for us

I think it was a typo - it said 2017 when I assume they meant 2018.
Interesting - I never knew BA flew direct LHR - SCL flights. Thanks OP for making me learn that

Would be interesting to understand new routes within and to/from Australia over 2017.

The most notable international ones I can recall involve MEL, but that may represent my own personal biases. These include MEL-SCL, MEL-CMB and MEL-YVR (seasonal for now), but there are also a plethora of routes involving China and various Australian airports too numerous to recall.
