Amman is to be served 2 weekly from MAN and 3 weekly from LGW, so yes, quite a shocker!
I'm quite good at this!
I would assume Stockholm is also a cert. unless it is Tallinn!
Will be a great addition and I'm pretty sure it will not remain at twice weekly if U2 get more aircraft into MAN. Will be a lucrative route for the airline that's for sure!
EZY will also look to add TLV as LS are reaping the rewards at the moment, but its going to be summer '11 we see that one added
Why El Al don't even send a 737 to MAN is beyond me! Anywhere north of Luton have to connect at LHR, LTN, FRA, AMS, CDG, MUC etc. unless they take LS which are charging what full service airlines are charging for return TATL flights and still filling them up! It's not like you can connect with EY, QR or EK is it!
U2 could turn MAN into a major base along with LTN, LGW, MXP etc. if they really pushed it - there are so many potential non-stop flights within Europe and Middle East that they could take advantage of!
