Summer schedules: Judging by the last two days' schedules, not a bad start at all, considering the negative factors affecting the industry such as ever-increasing APD and general economic malaise.
I make it 18 or 19 EZY early morning departures before 0845, including the inbound Dortmund, GLA, EDI and BHD which are turned around and depart to other destinations. No less than 13 early morning Wizz arrivals on Monday the 26th - our eastern European friends are certainly doing their bit to maintain healthy traffic levels!
I noticed this morning that RYR had 3 inbounds with non-based aircraft (Gerona/Kaunas/Tenerife) in addition to the usual 4 based units.
Nice to see Adria are sending in CRJ900's, they remind me of the good old days when they sent DC9's and MD80's! And good to see LY back with 767-300's; I guess they will be sending the 777's on peak days as per last year.
Maybe LTN will get to 10 mmppa this year with the Olympic traffic?
