As was discussed at the 2018 RFC on lists of airline destinations and quoted in recent related AFDs like this one, the general consensus is that they are not encylopedic content for Wikipedia. To follow up as per subsequent AN discussion, it was discussed that subsequent AFDs may be nominated in a orderly fashion provided the link to the RFC is included and the closer takes the RFD discussion into consideration.

The airline lists specifically nominated for this AFD are largely defunct and are no longer operating services. On their own, the lists fail WP:NOT#DIRECTORY and would largely fail WP:CORP. Some of the airline destination lists for nominated carriers such as Balkan Bulgarian Airlines and Air Vietnam were at one point Government-owned airlines, but would still fail WP:CORP based on the No Inherited Notability guideline. One other nominated airline destination list (List of Continental Express destinations) was part of a defunct mainline carrier (Continental Airlines) where some information could be merged into a few sentences in the article of the (now defunct) mainline carrier.

Per a brief WP:BEFORE check, most of the limited sources in the nominated articles are either from WayBack.org archives of the defunct airlines' websites, Airline blogs such as RoutesOnline or Airliners.net where users are allowed to put in their contributions, or mirror websites of Wikipedia. For the most part, the articles also largely fail WP:V or WP:INDEPENDENT.

As per the past few AFDs, unless if there are any sources that may rescue the articles, I will nominate them for deletion as the nominator. Coastie43 (talk) 00:20, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
