Gdansk doesn't seem very popular. I think I'll give it a miss on this years tour..
Or rather cheaper is to catch a bus to Baginton village rather than the bus to the Terminal.
Service 538 or 539 from Pool Meadow Bus Station in Coventry is what you need.

Done some research. Apparently I could get 538 or 539 from Warwick Road on the railway bridge which, according to Google Maps, is about five minutes' walk from Coventry railway station. Takes about 7 minutes to Baginton by bus. Would I just need Baginton or Baginton village? Also, how far would it be from Baginton to the Air Atlantique area? Is the AAG area near Oak Close? I ask because when I type in the address provided on AAG's website - Dakota House, Coventry Airport - it directs me to the passenger terminal.
Thanks again. :-)

The entrance is about 100m beyond Oak Close. There is a stop at the end of Oak Close - Just ask for the Baginton Oak (Both a tree and a pub). From the Airport entrance it is five minutes walk to Dakota House although the entrance is airside so you would probably need to ring them (or get the person at the security point to) to get someone to take you through.
Incidentally, coming out of the station turn left and take the footpath between station building and car park. One minute to Warwick Road bus stop.

New week night freight service to BFS using Atlantic Airlines ATP started this week.
Recently introduced freight service from Paris, originally Aero Nova Metro from Le Bourget, now BAC Express S360 (using a TRJ callsign) from Pontoise.

James, I seem to recall reading somewhere that it was indeed a TFly 737 (an early variant I think), been returned from Aerolinas Argentina after the sale fell through.
Also recall it was parked in Luton for some time before making its way to CVT. Can't find the post right now though - must learn to use the search functionality better!!

Wizz winter schedule
Can't see this mentioned before but KTW is bookable for winter 2008/9.
That is the good news but the bad is that it appears to be reduced to
twice a week: -
Wed & Sun in at 07.40 out at 08.10.
Not the greatest of times but better than nothing.

There will be a few less F1 flights from 2010............Donnington is quite handy for East Midlands.
TJS and WLC are Dornier 328 Jets, EEZ is an A320 and the WDL is a BAe146-200
