MAN-HHN is now bookable, but the schedule is a cold shower: Tue/Thu/Fri/Sat departing HHN for MAN at 6:55, departing MAN for HHN 7:55. Which is therefore of very limited use as a replacement for BE's Fri/Sun weekend flights MAN/BHX-FRA. Esp pretty useless for people around BHX as it's not easy at all to get to MAN for a 7:55 departure, might as well go BE BHX-DUS Sat at 7:00 from BHX. Which might not even be much more expensive. Right, celebrated too early then. Maybe something more useful in the summer. LH (and 4U) shall not worry about this. HHN has a traditional very early daily flight (incl Mon) to STN, which isn't that much worse, as getting-up at 4:30 ruins your day anyway, so the longer train ride doesn't matter that much. About MAN-FMM, there the Fri departure is well-times (16:10), but no Sun return option, the first being Mon 20:30. So MOL thinks we can all just take days off all the time if we want to do a weekend trip. While nearly everybody in Ireland is jobless now, not everybody in the UK is, yet
. 4U's schedule MAN-CGN is a good example for well-timed flights, even WW's EMA-CGN is quite a gift to e.g. expats and stag nights.
