This is one in the eye for DSA.
Looks like Astraeus are basing an aircraft at Humberside for summer 2006.
New flights from Thomas Cook:
Corfu AEU Monday
Crete AEU Tuesday
Antalya XQ Sunday (full season)
Zakynthos AEU Sunday
This is excellent news, I am over the moon!

Not sure what is going on with the Astraeus flights planned for summer 2006. The timetable would suggest a based or part based aircraft, operating at the moment to Corfu, Crete and Zakynthos for Thomas Cook. None of the other major tour operators are listing these flights. Humbersideairport.com is not listing a news story on the new flighs either. Also, no sign online of the new Monastir on Thomson or Panorama websites. I know it's early days, but all seems a bit disorganised. Hopefully it will be cleared up shortly.

Not looking good folks.
According to Astraeus' planning department, no flights from Humberside planned for summer 2006.
Also, not available to book on the Thomas Cook website, or via the call centre.
Thomas Cook saying probably not loaded into the system yet, but looks like it's turning into the Fuerteventura fiasco!

Humberside
I'd like to know why everyone has suddenly got it in for Humberside Airport, why is it all doom and gloom? Just carry on supporting your local airport and there really will be nothing to worry about.
It's a fantastic friendly airport with easy access routes, enjoy it for what it is is what I say!

Thomson Summer 2006 brochure
Ibiza and Sunday Palma flights will be operated by Air Europa instead of Thomson Fly (who are doing them this year). I think the Thursday Palma flight operated by Thomson Fly this year with a DSA Based aircraft will be operated by a LBA based aircraft next year
There was however no mention of the Tunisia flight

Tunisia is on, not sure of the date but a mate of mine was at a T.T. bash organised by HUY for launching of said route -haven't got any sense out of her yet; she got plastered!
For all the doom-mongers out there I gather HUY will be keping the local commercial construction industry busy over the next 12 months!

I am checking-in in a few hours to operate the inaugral Humberside-Malaga flight by Astraeus!! The aircraft is scheduled to be 757-200 G-OPJB. We are due to position empty from Gatwick and arrive at HUY at 1605 local. Departure is scheduled for 50mins later. The flight is approximately three quarters full, so not a bad load for the first flight!
20 years since I started flying out of Humberside, my home airport, I am operating for the first time!
I am so excited!

News on Balkan Holidays' Summer 2006 programme:
Tuesday Bourgas has been moved to Wednesday
Sunday Bourgas remains same
Unfortunately, someone down the road has gained a Varna flight from Balkan, DSA!!! Argghhh!!!
Never mind, with Zakynthos, Corfu, Fuerteventura and Monastir as new destinations, not doing too badly so far!

Not afraid of the competiton, as DSA is competing very well, just disappointed that HUY did'nt get the Balkan Varna flight. It would seem a little strange as Thomson are already doing Varna from DSA in summer 2006.
