My Travel have revealed within the last week that 3 of their planned services from LBA this summer have been canned (GRO, AGP and MIR). The period of operation for services to RHO and HER has been reduced.
These, I imagine, were services where advanced bookings were so low that even with the hoped for short conflict in Iraq, bookings wouldn't recover for the remainder of the summer.
In contrast, TUI have advised that the operation for the first two months of the season wil be flown with a B767 as opposed to the B757 as originally planned
A confusing message about the effect that the the uncertainty over Iraq has had on booking levels.
