With rumours of the WW CDG flight going back to BD would there be a market for EZY to do EMA CDG or ORY?
If WW switch NCE and AMDS to BD as well, could EZY move in on those routes?

From their website.
Now selling a new weekly scheduled flight, every Tuesday from 24MAY05 - 25OCT05, then from 05NOV05 the weekly flight will operate on Saturdays.
Flights scheduled to depart EMA at 19:00.
Aircraft MD90
What do our online friends at bmi think of the rumoured alterations at EMA?
What are your thoughts James737 and bmibaby.com?
Mike16 - what is the latest from easy? Not heard from you on here in ages!
And how are things looking from up where you are Almost Prof?
It really does feel like "Sleepy Hollow" at EMA this winter.

Hi
It is quiet really, the airport in my eyes seems to be going down hill abit. With bmibaby concentrating more on BHX, no TCX at all, shame it was a nice aircraft, the only busy one i see is BY.
Regards to EZY, well the latest we have heard is we are due to get our 700's very soon, i think april / may time.
I have heard nothing on new routes etc...... so is there anyone else out there who can help ?
Bye

EMA...
Not my airport, anymore...It saddens me to see how soulless it has become.
Just a LOCO airport, with LOCO management running ths show.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again...
Bring back the Crocpot, and whilst yr at it, chuck out the baby hierachy, over at the Pathfinder, and put the bar back in !!
Who remembers the Karaoke nights back in the early 90's?
Ahhhhhhh...

Hi
Well saw it all today, came back at lunch time from my Faro flight, and walking through security in the check in hall to go back to our crew room, and the security check in for PAX was nearly at cafe ritazza !!!!!! that is some bloody long queue.
This is really bad for the airport indeed as Satursay is quite a busy day at EMA with ski flights etc.......
Going back to EMA future, i remember last year someone saying on here that KLM or a lo-co version of them, was to be basing at EMA, where are they ?
Come on guys someone must know what is happening at EMA ?

So, What is going wrong?
A year ago we were promised that a name change would bring new routes, and that MAN plc would be paying for a new terminal.
Here we are January 05 and the place really feels stuck in the doldrums.
What is going wrong? Are airlines simply not interested - or is the Developement Dept at EMA not working as well as LPL BRS MAN and LTN Developement Depts.

I think a lot of the fate of many routes currently operated out of NEMA depends on the rather volatile no-frills airline industry. As bmibaby seem to be focusing their expansion out of BHX, EasyJet have not made it clear of any plans for expansion of their services, no more has come of the negotiations between flybe & NEMA for flights to Belfast and no news coming from the proposed Germanwings flights, I have no idea what will happen.
I could see NEMA becoming a bmi or bmi regional base again, but I doubt it would end up being ERJ-145 base. The baby operation has shown there is a market for larger aircraft, and so perhaps the airline will use Airbus or larger Embraer types at the airport.
As far as I'm aware, the airport is looking for a new managing director. I can't see any huge negotiations for the airport until a new one comes along. I doubt we'll see any major announcement for summer 2005, sadly. But I do hope Ryanair & EasyJet will expand from NEMA, and that WW/BD will make up their minds for what they want to do.

In the past, Airbus have sent some of their newer products (A340 & A330) which have been powered by Rolls Royce engines to EMA for RR staff to have a look around.
Any ideas if Airbus have any plans to send the RR powered A380 to EMA? Presumably the runway is long enough & they have enough space to park the beast.

A380 is code F like AN124, so could not get it down taxyway past main apron, but runway is ample I guess, and it would fit on Western cargo apron as we do with the Antonov-just backtrack when required-probably a good bet to see it at some point-also UPS have ordered some!

From the NEMA website...
19 January 2005
Celebrating More New Routes From NEMA For 2005
Nottingham East Midlands Airport is proud to announce that bmi are expanding their operations to include flights to Paris Charles de Gaulle and Nice from March.
Direct flights to both destinations start on 27 March. Paris Charles de Gaulle will operate three times daily Monday to Friday, daily on Saturdays and twice daily on Sundays. Nice operate daily on Saturdays and Sundays. They already operate a route to Brussels from NEMA.
Flights will be an all-jet, full-service operation, offering both business and economy class seating. The new bmi regional schedule will replace the current Nottingham East Midlands to Paris CDG and Nice flights which are operated by bmi low-cost subsidiary bmibaby.
Crawford Rix, Managing Director of bmi regional, said,
“bmi regional are delighted to be expanding services at Nottingham East Midlands. The return of the Nice and Paris CDG routes back into our flight schedule will increase our weekly flight offering from 18 to 38, over three destinations from the airport. Whether flying for business or leisure, our passengers can be assured of convenient flight times, competitive low fares in both cabins, frequent flyer benefits and of course our full-service in-flight offering.”
In May, NEMA begins its first long-haul programme – the first in the Airport’s history and a huge boost in choice for passengers in the region. First Choice decided on NEMA over Birmingham to fly to the Dominican Republic, Cancun and Florida.
Other brand new routes for 2005 include:
Antalya, Turkey
Bergen, Norway
Chania, Crete
Dubrovnik, Croatia
Kalamata, Greece
Ljubljana, Slovenia
Santorini, Greece
Skiathos, Greece
Volos, Greece
Also, in February 2005, Ryanair begin operating their new route to Rome.
Caroline Plant, NEMA General Manager Sales and Marketing said,
“These are very exciting times for NEMA…throughout the year we have introduced twelve brand new routes for 2005, giving us a bigger portfolio of destinations than ever before. Today’s announcement from bmi is a great endorsement of our service. A major overhaul of the terminal is also taking place in time for the summer season, which can only enhance the whole passenger experience at NEMA”.

Hi All
Has anyone seen the BBC1 local news and also read the Derby evening telegraph, about the name change of the airport.
I read the article and it was very interesting reading about the New name of NEMA
The evening telegraph rang all the airports that Ema cover and only 3 said, they fly to NEMA, almost all of them say they fly to EMA, and they have never heard of Nottingham.
What a laugh, this is, lets go back and call it, the good old east midlands airport. It should never have changed anyway.
Take care all
bye

Didn't bmi baby previously operate these two routes
All they're doing is playing musical chairs with the operator and aircraft type. One wonders if they actually know what they're doing!
They're certainly giving Ezy an obvious way to elbow in and take over.

Hi
With regards to EZY , watch this space !!!!!
Hi
I work for EZY and the rumour at the base is that we are having the 700\'s very soon, and apparently we may be having another aircraft very soon, let\'s hope so ,we are very busy as a base and i think any new more routes will go down a success like the Rome and Cologne have done.
Bye
