Travel City Direct at NCL...Cancelled!

[captainben]

I have been told by reliable sources that Travel City Direct have cancelled this years peak time Orlando Sanford rotations. This is due to low passenger numbers asuming other airlines like Monarch, Thomas Cook and Air Scandic have fully booked flights. What a shame?

[10 DME ARC]

It was cancelled more than a month ago, late planning etc etc

[green737]

That would have been the only 747 visiting NCL in the summer and now its cancelled!! Shame!!

[witchdoctor]

Well at least the Sharm-el-Sheik run in November is still on the board as I understand, so at least 1 747 to look forward to.

[green737]

Who is operating the Sharm-el-Sheikh flight??

[CentreFix25]

Thought it was Britannia, which would mean a 76 - or are the 75's capable (not much further than Cyprus is it?)

CF.

[green737]

G-BYAD, 'AE, 'AF and 'AJ are all capable of doing this flight!! It is about an hour longer than Cyprus!!

[CentreFix25]

Cheers Green737. Well my moneys on a 757 then, don't think they'll fill a 76.

Not forgetting the TCX Dominican Republic flight from this time next year, which is being offered by Thomas Cook, Sunset and Thomson! Guessing that will be an A330.

[green737]

Yes it will be a 330!! My bet for the SSH flight is also a B757!!

[FinalsToLand]

ATM the SSH is sched to be ops by a B767,

Subject to change,

[green737]

Thanx for that info FinalsToLand!!

Notice that the SSH is operated by a NCL based aircraft

ETD Thu 0950
ETA Thu 2205

Does this mean that NCL is getting a based BY 767 over the winter or will the aircraft position in and out of NCL to do the SSH rotation?

[10 DME ARC]

SSH is scheduled at this present time to be done by the based BAL B752.

SSH

Also noticed Thomas Cook are selling holidays to SSH from NCL for summer 2005 on a Thursday flight, ETD12.55 ETA01.15(FRI), anyone know who will be operating this?

Cheers

The MAN-SSH sectors are operated on a B752 (And the crew do the whole rotation!). What's fatigue?
