I think the brochure said IWD on the PMI and SunExpress on the the other 3 including PFO which must have been a mistake - more probably ECA.
They all looked like whole charters to me.

New for Spring 2006 from Palmair are -
Paphos,
Malta,
Luxor using an Astreaus 737 on the Paphos and Luxor routes.
They have dropped Malaga and Alicante for the winter. Does this mean that TOM are going to introduce an Alicante service?

Theres to be a few flights going out to Paphos in 06, any reason why there arent any going to larnaca?? Last time I went of a flight BOH - LCA it was full.
Also, a real long shot, but the flights being operated by Astreaus, any indication in the long run that Palmair will end up in them.

BOH. Who said there weren't any flights to Larnaca in 2006?
Unless you've heard otherwise everything operating summer 05 will be there in summer 06 a long with the new routes.
Can't see Libra scrapping Larnaca as its a real good seller for them.

Adding another Larnaca would dilute the market. Its better to offer a totally different destination within Cyprus. I think that Thomson and Thomas Cook will eventually agree to share a single flight to Paphos as 2 may be a little ambitious as well as the Larnaca.

Its all looking really good for 2006 with a good aray of new routes being added which complement the existing ones and also its really good to see some new well established holiday company s giving Bournemouth a chance now to prove itself !

Obviously MyTravel , Thomson , Libra and Palmair still to advise on there actual flight schedules although heard rumour that MyTravel are to re introduce Las Palmas again . Thomson to also introduce Ibiza into next summer although this is more than likely to be operated by Thomsonfly scheduled service.
BA are operating the New York fly cruise in July using a Boeing 777 again fantastic !!

I believe that Thomson will announce their summer 06 schedules tomorrow. When do MyTravel announce their summer 06?
Great news on the above.
Will be interesting to see if Thomson will continue at SOU. Have First Choice and Thomas Cook continued with the summer 06 flights from SOU?

Channel islands to bournemouth
There is not the passengers from the channel islands to serve BOH. As an employee for aurigny havin work with the bournemouth route from jersey i notice the decline in pasenger numbers the demand for bournemouth is not there with Flybe operating to southampton and exeter low cost from jersey.
Aurigny ceased services to bournemouth because it was making a loss. but rockhopper seem to follow aurigny on there routes and make the same mistake for example the dinard route out of jersey that lasted about 3 months!

cptcoxie,
I would beg to differ. It is true that the demand in the winter months is much lower than in the summer, but you can't really compare the low cost services by Flybe with the traditional fare structure of Aurigny. Passengers who would fly BOH to JER are attracted to SOU due to the ticket price.
If TOM were to bring in a loco service as you suggest in another thread, then loads would be healthy from BOH.
Rockhopper hasn't followed Aurigny into BOH. It's the other way around. Rockhopper started services in January 2002, Aurigny started in March 2004.
Rockhoppers Alderney route continues to grow from BOH and last year nearly carried 9,000 pax an increase of around 8%. Remember that Rockhopper are not a loco operation and only use maximum 15 seat trislanders on all routes.
It will be interesting to see who wins out on the Alderney - Southampton route when Rockhopper starts its services.

Rockhopper was pushed out when Aurigny stepped in, now they have chance to take back over after Aurigny pulled the route to save money.
Only fair, hope rockhopper do get a Short 360 as mentioned somewhere before

Space at Bournemouth
Went assed Bournemouth This week to see a Packed Ramp
outside the terminal
1 thomsonfly 757
1 thomsonfly 737
1 Ryanair 737
1 jet2 737
West Ramp
2x Emerald 748
1 Air Contrators f27
1 Titan 737
1 rockhopper bn3

Question is,
Why doesnt the freight aircraft that are parked up all day get moved onto the Disused runway or to build a new ramp just for Cargo to make more space.

Because they can obv all fit on the current ramps - just a thought! Why build more if you dont need it! I guess that if they needed the ramp space cleared then they would move the Frieghters away.
Quote from dft.gov.uk "The 12,000 sq. metre apron at Bournemouth Airport has only 6 stands, at present, which is seen as a major constraint to development, as it potentially only provides capacity for 1 mppa. The recent planning approval includes consents for apron expansion."

Out of interest, as over the next year the Passenger numbers are to increase at BOH, and so probably (and hopefully 
) going to carry on increasing over the following years, are their any plans at all to replace the shed that makes up the terminal. Theres only so much they can expand the current one, and I dont see how they can increase much more such things as the number of baggage belts, last time I traveled through bournemouth I was suprised they fitted one in the space they had in Arrivals. Its long over due but are their any plans in the pipeline?
Cheers

Unfortunatly some bad news regarding the Summer 2006 programme
First Choice and Thomas Cook have cancelled there programme of flights to the following
Dalaman Palma Paphos Faro Antalya
Seems really odd to pull the plug already at such an early stage not giving any chance to sell these holidays , although the planning actually starts a good 6 months before this so must have been a good reason .
Its still really early days though and its still possible some of these services could be reinstated
Good news however is My Travel are bringing back Las Palmas
Flights known to be operating with the big tour operators so far now are
Saturday Palma Futura Boeing 737 400 My Travel
Sunday Larnaca Euro Cypria Boeing 737 800 Libra
Monday Las Palmas Spanair A320 My Travel
Tuesday Pula Thomsonfly Boeing 737 300 Thomson
Wednesday Paphos Thomsonfly boeing 737 300 Thomson
Friday Tenerife Spanair A320 Thomson / My Travel
