Hainan replied to me last nights apologising they had a mix up with the Birmingham service and manchester service.
The said the manchester service will start once the A330 crewing is resolved. (Airline routes can confirm this as they just spoken to there representative from the airline and forwarded it into my inbox on facebook) saying the route will launch one the airbus a330 crewing is complete.
So for now I'm sticking with hainan! :-)
Also thanks Lax-LHR for confirming the airline got it wrong before I even said it and checked my 'this morning emails'
