Re: MANCHESTER

Looks like CX are only selling a very limited number of seats from MAN to HKG and v. 52, according to a post on a.net, 3C and 52Y....gues the revenue is to be made from Moscow. Maybe cargo is the key to this route succeeding?

Any more news on Global Spirit?!

Re: MANCHESTER

Vuelo.
Having trawled through a few travel websites recently in the vain hope of a cheapie to HKG, I could not find any offering MAN-HKG direct
Yep you guessed it MAN-LHR-HKG.
Maybe that's the reason the numbers are low.

Re: MANCHESTER

If you go to the Cathay website it certainly shows it. And I doubt there will be any cheapies either.

Re: Manchester

Twice daily MAN - CDG would be a nice 1 too. I believe that CDG does well from LBA and AF seem to be very expensive at times.

Wonder why AMS has been dropped down to twice daily. I thought the loads of this route were pretty high?

I think you have made an error with the weekend AMS schedules. According to the Jet2 website Saturday has services departing MAN at 08:15 and 17:15 and on Sunday only 1 service at 17:15.

Your own list already has two LS945/6 flights on Saturday. The 06:40 departure is Monday to Friday only. So it's down to two flights per day except Sunday.

From tha data I have seen the loads have been higher than MAN-EDI or MAN-LGW for Jet2 but lower than LBA-AMS. The middle flight was probably the weak point and has been dropped accordingly. Anyone for a spare pair of AMS slots?

PTH Needs Tarmac

"I think you have made an error with the weekend AMS schedules. According to the Jet2 website Saturday has services departing MAN at 08:15 and 17:15 and on Sunday only 1 service at 17:15. "

I can confirm that the Jet 2 websie did say 3 flights on a Saturday, for a short while. This was obviously an error and has been sorted out now, so LBIA was'nt actually wrong in his posting.

POL1W (& LBIA),

Thanks. Those mid-upload glitches do happen sometimes.

Just treat it as an update rather than a correction of an error.

well it's all gone very quiet on the Manchester front! Has anyone got any news or developments?

Any movement on Cathay Pacific or Etihad?

What about rumours of Meridiana, or any new BA Connect routes?

A mate of mine in Cardiff told me Air Wales are going to be flying Manch to Rennes, France from March.
Is this true anyone - sounds like an oddity to me - not that I'm likely to use it or anything - just interested.

Cool

The official line is that negotiations are ongoing but not finalised yet. Afraid can't say any more than that at the moment.

Does anyone know if Jet2 will be restarting their Venice Marco Polo service this summer? It seems to have gone a bit quiet on that front!

Heard today that it looks like all of BMI's operations will move to 3 from 1st June this year. That includes Baby, too apparently.

According to Plane Talk, gates 49 and 143 are to be completely refurbished. One assumes in readiness for the BD long-hauls.

IICR BMI will put there 330 (if they still have one in manchester?) on 44 and they will be a new walkway there from 43.
