On a more serious note.

Obviously Flybe with the 5 additional routes. Probably few more from FR due and no doubt Easyjet will want a bit of the cake.

And the recent announcement regarding further airport expansion, due in 2005.

The inbound was due yesterday at about 04:30, a bit early for me. PandO said the flight was very successful and will have a few more next year.

This is the outbound 767 on its way to Barbados from Liverpool.

Rumours of CO have been around for quite some time, nothing concrete yet though.

Wizz Air

The W6 website still shows no sign of LPL-BUD for S05. Can we assume this has been suspended as all other BUD destinations, and also LPL-KTW and LPL-WAW have now been released for sale?

The winter 2004 schedule shows departures Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday to Warsaw, Budapest and Katowice from Liverpool.

The summer 2005 schedule has departures to Katowice on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. The Warsaw flights are on the same days as the winter.

There are no flights (at present at least) to Budapest.

Now that Liverpool is to bring forward the next stage in terminal expansion, which way will it go East or West.
East would take out the old tower (pictured above) and West, TNT and the Royal Mail buildings would have to go, also more apron space which way? an extension to the new tango apron or West down towards the fuel tank farm.

The most likely way is towards the west.

Then east for the next phase after that.

does not seem to indicate the best of starts to wizzairs operation my guess would be lack of pax as opposed to a/c maint issues. would you agree?!?!

Well Wizz must be optimistic over the WAW and KTW routes if they`ve at least put those on sale for 05. I`m concerned that if they can pull BUD as quickly as this, before it even starts, in the face of competition from LS at MAN, then what future is there for the remaining routes if the likes of SkyEurope start flying to MAN (they have apparently applied for slots). This is of course assuming that EZY don`t decide to fly ex MAN to WAW and KRK (or even BUD).

Wizz are still battling away down at Luton head to head with Easyjet, were there seems to be lots of capacity compared to the North West were there's room for a bit more, the routes to Poland will do well and Budapest, well head to head with Jet2 why not there'll be plenty of backsides to go round on this route.
