it is if you had seen what went before!
well used manchester examples
looking good for IT in the summer, if all that is on the programme arrives-but would like to see more Easy/Ryanair growth as well-extension to IDL is coming on apace, all we can see out of the restroom now is blue!, mind you as we will be working on the taxyways this summer-overlaying tarmac-with various parts closed then perhaps major expansion would not be the best thing from an operational point of view, though as usual we will make it work somehow-I will be reaching back 15 years to remember how to work backtracking half the runway length!

almost professional,
What exactly is planned? Backtracking is no good to me on the 767, we can't 180 on the R/W!! Certainly won't be making Orlando or Cancun from an intersection either......

not sure of all the details, but overlay is planned on certainly the taxyway to the west of the central apron-which is why work was being done around mike last week-guess that mike will be closed so backtrack to sierra on 27-though golf and hotel should remain open, so landing 27 off at golf and enter to backtrack at hotel-opposite procedure for 09 deps
taxyway to east of central also needs doing but job may be split over two years
going to be more of a problem for the ground controller than anything else-but may have to get the spacing right in approach-which when you take into account the new airspace and procedures coming in may will take some work!

Cheers, see where it's going now......see the options now. At least enough left open for us to vacate and re-enter, as I said 180's without a turning circle on the end would creat an even bigger headache, plenty of paperwork, and a good gear washdown afterwards. Not to mention tea and biscuits in some nice management office for me

Sorry 30W
Apparently LGW and MAN crews are operating the vast majority of these flights. Bad news if you are a minor base driver, its the usual Canaries and night Turkeys until the end of Oct I'm afraid. Thanks for the advice on the planned WIP though. It would never have occured to us to actually read the notams/taxi charts etc.
This forum yet again proves it's invaluable contribution to flight safety.

I went through the EMA departure lounge today, the extension is coming along nicely. I was quite impressed with the work to the rest of the departure lounge as well (new seating, re-done bar downstairs, changes to security area etc). Also the domestic departure lounge has gone now, it is simply gates 1-6. Its starting to look half-decent 
Anyone else been through recently?

Looks like EMA is loosing out again to Birmingham on the announcement of a new flight to Newquay. I know its only newquay but a new route is a new route. Still no expansion plans at EMA for UPS and doesnt look like any new routes scheduled anyway on the horizon for now while everyone else expands around us.

The plans are there for UPS, they're just not being put into action - whether it's a hierarchy thing or something I'm not sure. Doesn't look promising though.
Had heard a whisper a while back we were going to start operating a route to MMX but have heard nothing more.
Next 'expansion' is the BBD6810 route getting a 757 to replace the 737 currently opereating the route. No news on anything overly major though.

Is there any prospects of new services from NEMA in the future?!? The airport seems to have very much stagnated recently.
Does anyone know if easyJet still plan to add a fourth aircraft when NEMA changes to being an A319 base later this year?
I have heard we can expect more Ryanair services from approx November 05 (so fingers crossed!).

wasn't stagnant between 2200/2400 friday night!-do not remember that many friday night IT flights for many a year-but not a lot of news on schedule front, rumours do still abound about Ryanair increasing the number of routes, and also about Easyjet upping the number of based aircraft to go along with A319 introduction-looking at stand remarking on the central apron apparently to squeeze the maximum aircraft in for slot1

I heard about possible stand remarking to squeeze more aircraft onto the ramp!
I know people have said EMA has done well in keeping a good level of charter traffic and a busy Friday night would tend to support that.
Thanks for the info Mike16, 5 aircraft would be good although its still a way off from the likes of NCL and BRS
Any ideas on possible new routes from easy?
