Re: MANCHESTER
Yet QF stated, at the time of them/Backpackers Express applying for the extra UK rights on offer, that they would not be looking at anywhere else in the UK for at least 5 years which would take us to 2009 at the earliest before they restart....and even then it's a moot point if it will be in their own colours or, more likely, Jetstar, with the probable type being the 787.

Re: MANCHESTER
When Qantas ordered their 787s recently they included some for Jetstar for international routes (with A330s filling until the 787s are available). Suggestion seemed to be that they would fly to Europe, and be aimed at the lower cost end of the market. As Manchester supposedly lost QF due to the lack of high yield pax, then putting 2+2 together would place Jetstar into MAN. 2007 fits in with the general planning they have announced I think.

Jetstar also have a loco subsidiary, Jetstar Asia, which operates a range of sevices out of Singapore to destinations that include BKK, TPE & HKG .... they are the only loco that flies into HKG at present.

Re: MANCHESTER
Was talking to one of the BA ground agents last night after the ACE and apparently the BA JFK is not showing on next winters programme.
Looks like it is finally going to bite the dust! :-(
Will AA take the route over? t3 will sure look good with three AA tails every morning.

Hi
Anyone know if the GB/BA C Class service is worth doing. Going on business to Malta later in month. A trip of that length might just justify the premium. (3hours??).
Grateful for any comments/experiences.

Re: MANCHESTER
Hi there.
Does anybody know if jet2 are going to be lauching any more routes from MAN before the summer schedule starts?
They seem to be announcing new routes from their other bases on a regular basis at the minute but theres been no news on Manchester for a while now.
They seem to have gaps in their schedules which would suggest that they are but it's only a few months til the season starts and surely theyre leaving it a little late?
It looks like BUD and VCE arent going to be operating next summer. Can anyone confirm this?

VHF Flyer. As far as short haul premium cabins go, Club Europe is good. As our flights are leisure orientated, we only tend to end up needing two rows for club (10 seats) so its quite intimate. Food is nice and on the longest flights, the starter is served separately although Malta is classed as a band 3 flight. Champagne offered all journey,drinks whenever you want of course. The seats are very comfortable.
Euro Traveller is also pleasant and the seat pitch is the same.
