What Is The Difference Between An Airline Base And A Hub?

- Budget airline Wizz Air is establishing bases all over Europe- from its (delayed) plan in Cardiff to numerous Italian bases, as well as several around the Balkans. However, some of these bases have just a single aircraft stationed there- something very different from what we might see with legacy carriers and their hubs (which also act as bases). Considering this, let’s take a look at these aviation terms and how they differ.

These are the topics we would like to know and curious. Thank you so much.
Air Canada has “focus cities” of Ottawa and Halifax, which while aren’t full hubs, do conduct significant operations and have crews based there.
Thank you.
Very well presented.
Thanks for the feedback! - TB
I noticed more and more airlines are putting their logo on the bellies of their planes. Any real reason why?
Advertising / increasing brand recognition?
Yeah, it doesn’t really have a reason except branding.
Not the reason, but it does look a lot better when taking photos from the ground vs plain white
Ahhh nice input cuz I thought it was for more reasons
You should have also mentioned the term "focus city".
Make a topic for Aircraft Maintenance and Technician.
Probably just a cool little way to know the airline from below
Thumbnail: shows Emirates A330neo
Kids who love Aviation: HAS EMIRATRS RE-ORDERED THE A330neo?!!!!!!!!
@a320 lol
@a320 Not gonna lie but Simply Flying should at least have put an Emirates A350-900 but I guess the A330Neo from Emirates is fine even tho Emirates unfortunately canceled the order for the A330Neo
More Canadian airlines are expanding their hubs as of recent which is a smart move.
Ah, BHD Aer lingus has it run by Dublin maintenance crew and flight crew. Stobart air had pilots and Maintaince based here
Didn't know the difference, now I do thank you
The primary reason for a base that's not a hub is where it would be more efficient to base crew at certain secondary airports because it wont make sense throwing out expensive long layovers for recovering legal crews to be able to return in an efficient manner.
It's awesome to see my local airport, Sky Harbor International, at 1:32 part of video!
oh thanks for telling me!
How do Multi Airport Systems work? Can you make a video on that??
How much of an argument can one make for a medium class city like KRNO to be some kind of small base camp especially if you have KLAS an hour or so away that can be by all means an easier hub and base connection?
What you think about this hub-to-hub:
NE/SE/Central USA regional flights to MinneapolisShenyang China with regional flights to Beijing, Shanghai, Japan and S Korea.
Two hub airports that are not near max capacity, shortest route between East USA and NE China
Now i know. Thanks
Make a video- Airlines business models.
Yes, very good idea, but it would probably be several videos. E.g. some airlines put a lot of focus on transfer passengers in & out of their hub (Turkish, Qatar, KLM before it was acquired by AF). A video on regional airlines in the US market would also be interesting. Some airlines even have a strategy *not* to grow and instead be as profitable as possible in a limited number of markets.
So some bases are not hubs, but hubs are bases.
Cool
Theres also Focus Cities.
@@G-546 sure? My understanding of these was always that Airlines serve those cities from as many bases as possible or via W patterns but do not base aircraft there. So that is just another word for a base?!
No, I did not know the difference. And from what I just heard, Amsterdam must be an example of a foreign base for Delta. When I made my connection there going to Munich, I was surprised to see how many Delta jets there were there.
As the man said a popular destination from say Atlanta 10 to 12 hours away is an ideal site for a secondary base airport. The idea being is to relieve long haul flights with a spare crew which so happens to be regularly used as return crews to the companies home bases.
That point on the state of Michigan was definitely in the wrong spot...

Good evening
Can u please say what music are you using?
If you worked for Qantas and were LAX based, would you need to have American citizenship, Australian, or both?
To work legally in the U.S. you need either be a citizen OR have visa to work. Dual citizenship would not be a factor (for the U.S anyway). However, it isn't that easy to get a visa to work in the U.S. Typically to get a work visa you would need to work in a field that has been deemed difficult for U.S. based employers to find employees to fill the role. As well, you would have to have been offered a position at the prevailing wage. Obviously I do not know Qantas' hiring requirements but my guess would be for LAX they would try to hire American citizen's first to fill the roles needed there.
@@explorenaked I agree with your reply. In fact citizenship would not be required -- only being able to work legally in the country.
@RAVINDRA SWAROOP Yes.. anyone working airside at an airport will have to obtain some sort of clearance. Even the baggage handlers..
@RAVINDRA SWAROOP Yes, the Seafarer ID.. From what I know they do not require a visa to come ashore while in transit.
I don't know what arrangements are made for airline crews. I noticed at some airports that they go through a separate booth that has a sign that says something like "Diplomatic Visas / Airline Crews".
Make a video for tomorrow
0:26 WOOOOOO SAUDIA
Calm yourself Rayan…
@@aviationlba747 _no, I don't think I will_
Why do saudia stop Dhaka in Hong Kong flight
Economics probably,

I thought hub and base are same
to some extent yes, only that bases are simply the airports used to house crews for services and the hubs are collective destinations to increase efficiency but also make people howl at ticketing computers by showing there are long layovers at the hubs because the flights out are coordinated much later.
I always thought SFO was a hub for united because I always see I bunch of united aircraft there lol
Yes- in the video it says “there are a few more” united hubs
Compare it to focus city too
I think a focus city is pretty much a base since crew would be based there
@@scpatl4now Not sure but I believe a focus city is much more indicative of the marketing emphasis than facilities. More advertisement, maybe more flights or larger airplanes, and such. It can be temporary too to develop a market.
Yesssss I am number ( 80 in the likes or like ) lessss go
Air traffic rules: type of plane,height of flight, speed, wait before landing.
You never spoke of this before... xD
Make a video on PIA kabul evacuation
Yes. And on that El Al evacuation flight (don't remember the year) fro Ethiopia to Israel where they crammed more than 1k people in a single plane.
When is a hub not a hub?....... when it's a base..
I like plane
Plane good yes
@@rednightfire2655 Plane good. Plane with pilot better.
This video is based
Calgary is not considered a hub by Air Canada. More of a focus city, and it is a crew base for Flight Attendants, but not pilots. They barely compete with Westjet other than on busy domestic routes to their other hubs (YVR YYZ YUL).
Sure… except for the fact that Air Canada and its website calls it a hub…
@@chrislohphotography you got me. But a mini hub at best.

Sorry my man, you only made it more confusing to me....lol.
Basically a crew base is the airport where people are hired to live at to coordinate scheduling and ultimately routes. Hubs are a dying breed of larger airports where carriers concentrate loading up regional flights so point to point services can be reasonably avoided while still getting you to the out range destinations using the second flight from the hub.
