Liverpool -- READ the stickies!!!!!!!

[Yeah Whatever]

who loves flybe then ??

well dwlpl, like flybe then do you?

[lagerlout]

kind of sorry i asked now ^^^^^ ???

What have the flybe loads been like??

[dwlpl]

The official figures show that flyBE carried 6357 pax on the Liverpool/Belfast City route from when it began to fly the route on 10th February.

EasyJet figures fell by just over 1200 in February (with one day less due to the leap year) on the Liverpool/Belfast Int route.

[point5]

I flew LPL-EDI last Wednesday with flybe. Only 14 pax. I think they need to reschedule this flight like they are doing GLA and have an early morning and evening rotation.

Liverpool gets Ibiza three times a week Sun, Tues, Weds, early morning departures, and as all Ezy based a/c are busy could this be another based a/c on the way.

[dwlpl]

Did a quick check and all other flights around the time of the new Ibiza flights from Liverpool appear to be still available.

If thats the case there must be another aircraft on its way to be based.

[dwlpl]

After todays ordering of Embraer 195 aircraft, flyBE are talking about what it hopes to do (not in any great detail yet) through Liverpool.

Here is a quote taken today from tonights press http://icliverpool.icnetwork.co.uk/0...name_page.html

".....the new Embraer fleet will allow the airline to operate international routes from Liverpool, requiring up to five planes to be based here.

The domestic routes will be served by the turbo props and the jets will link Liverpool to France, Portugal, Spain and the Mediterranean.

We will announce the new routes early in 2006 and they will start in August or September, when the first planes are delivered.

That will allow us to double passengers through Liverpool to one million, which will create 1,000 local jobs."

Easy IBZ I think you will find will be done by cancelling other routes or subing routes from other bases.

[MerchantVenturer]

Either the Flybe press release (see extract below) has inadvertently omitted LPL or they have changed their mind since issuing it.

Flybe will take delivery of its first 195 in Autumn 2006. These planes will initially be deployed at Flybe’s major bases in Birmingham, Southampton, Belfast, Exeter, Jersey, Guernsey, Edinburgh and Glasgow. The delivery of these firm orders will mean that Flybe will have a total fleet size of between 59 (firm) and 91 (including options) aircraft by 2009.

[dwlpl]

The press release in the Liverpool Echo is quoting Mike Rutter Marketing Director of flyBE.

[dwlpl]

Total passenger through Liverpool in May 2005 432,497, up 46% on May 2004.

Total for first five months of 2005 is 1,545,683, up 25% on same period in 2004.

At the moment there is an early weekday EZY rotation of BFS and back twice. I think they will either chop one BFS trip and use it on the IBZ, with the weekend rotations taken from the loss of the Berlin (SXF) and GVA. (These now originate from SXF and GVA and are not operated by LPL based a/c, and spotters will have noticed the SXF/GVA are all Airbus 319s).

Otherwise the IBZ will be operated by other bases anyway as its only running July-September.

[Mouser]

Reported in the Liverpool Daily Post this morning, flights between Liverpool and New York could be in place as early as next summer. Officials from LJLA are to meet with a number of potential airlines as confidence grows that the service could prove a huge winner, umm! we'll see.

Eastern Airways LPL

Has anyone heard that Eastern Airways are looking to start LPL-IOM? If true presumably to compete with Euromanx and ressurrect a two carrier operation on the route which was vacated by Emerald. Could anyone alaborate on this??
Cheers

[supersnake]

as it happens i have heard the same thing it is rumoured to be starting in september the iom needs a reliable carrier as a former pilot who flew many times out of liverpool would love to pass through again on time

4 new Ryanair Routes i see

Riga - Latvia
Torp (Oslo) - Norway
Carcassonne - France
Bergerac - France

[conradmueller]

When is EZY opening bookings for the Cologne route.
Seen myself, that it is going good now. For a few months already EZY has overtaken HLX on the MAN-CGN route.
When I fly average about 82% load-factors.

[conradmueller]

Bookings for LPL - CGN in the winter are now possible.

[dwlpl]

..... the Saturday flight stops further into the winter period.

I think it did the same last winter.
