Airline updates
Does anyone have or know any information as to when Air Nigeria will eventually start their LGW-Lagos route?
Also any more information as to Hong Kong Airlines planned route from LGW to Kong Kong?
If these two airlines do actually commence operations from LGW it will have been an excellent year for Gatwick Airport along with the new long haul airlines and destinations added to the route map after Air Asia X to Kuala Lumper and Vietnam Airlines to Ho Chi Min and Hanoi along with British Airways to Mauritius.
On the downside though it seems as LGW attracts airlines they seem to lose them one two one as Montenegro Airlines, Air Berlin and Adria Airlines are set to leave in the foreseable future!
Although as to short haul LGW does regain Lufthansa flying to Frankfurt in October.
It would be great to see IAG either British Airways or Iberia or even Vueling start growing in the Spanish market by adding routes from LGW to Alicante, Bilbao, Palma, Seville, Valencia.
As to British Airways I would like to see them restart a LGW to Malta route as well, maybe a few winter routes to the Canary Islands.
