Note recent comment on the Belfast thread that VS are expected to start services to MCO from Belfast, LAS from Glasgow together with some changes at MAN with formal announcement by October...........
I wonder what changes could be seen at MAN? I assume a LAS out of GLA could mean MAN is getting more flights? If not, could virgin be about to bow to the emergence of a newly revitalised TCX, which now flies to MCO, offers more LAS flights, ramped up BGI and starting MIA/JFK? Virgin have invested in the V-room at MAN so, one would hope that our services do not get cut.
But, on the flipside, the new JV with Delta, and TCX starting to push forward, could we about to see a new focus and direction on MAN, with DL? JFK perhaps? Although MAN is strictly leisure based for VS, we know for a fact they have looked at operating HKG, they have said as much themselves. Therefore, one could assume they have also looked into other non leisure routes from MAN?
Interesting times ahead, if the comments in the BFS thread are true.
