Blackpool-Malaga
Jet2 run 5 days a week from March 2007 leaving at lunchtime.
I think Monarch drop Blackpool, but continue to run from Man instead over Winter

Typical loads in July for BLK were around 80% accross all routes. STN is fine, however the times make certain sectors on certains days comemrcially unattractive which naturally reflects in the loads.
Generally BLK is doing well and on target for c1m passengers in 2007.

Are Ryanair pulling the gerona flights as been trying to book for november or march and not having any luck, just says flights are either full or not scheduled to fly, bit odd as they were advertising them cheap on their website until feb 07

BLK-GRO with Ryanair over the winter (nov-mar) operated 4 x weekly, Mo, We, Fr, Su. SO if you try and book a day the flight doesnt operate it will say nothings available.
CHeck your dates are one of the days above.

New Routes
Seems that Phil M from JetToo was in BFS earlier this week talking about doubling the frequency to BLK and LBA 3/07. Heard he's got more BLK expension plans for BLK lined up. Guess I'll put my CV in yet again!!
still, at least they don't charge 
like Ryanair 
or I'd be broke

Surely BLK - GRO cannot be dropped after Jan. This route has load factors around 80% even during the winter. Is some re jigging of the timetable taking place i.e moving from an evening departure to a morning departure. Can anyone confirm whats happening to this route one way or another?
Regards

Calm down everyone. Ryanair have taken off sale flights to Girona from a number of airports during this period including Paris, Turin, Verona etc. This would suggest that its something to do with the booking system etc. GRO is a very profitable route from the UK so I'm pretty sure that you haven't lost your flights.
