Newquay is apparantly announcing new routes next week this must be one of them. Very good news I really hope it is the start of good things for Flybe in Newquay!l
It was said that they were in discussions with six airlines a while back, looks like NQY is getting quite popular!!

What do you mean by slots,Edinburgh doesn't have them,and I'm certain that goes for NQY too!

Edinburgh does have slots of a sort. It is designated as a schedules facilitated airport, at which airline operators file their schedules into the Airport Coordination system and may be asked to make voluntary timing changes to alleviate congestion. Although they are not subjected to the same onerous restrictions as at major slot coordinated airports like Heathrow or Gatwick, schedules filed at airports like Edinburgh, Glasgow and Bristol are still visible to other airline operators, handling agents and the like. In most cases, schedules data submitted by airlines into the Airport Coordination system will drive the departures and arrivals screens at the respective airports.

Time For Some More Arrivals
With the summer???? around the corner I.e. tonight when the clocks change some summer schedules kick in.
It must be a least 2 months since they received there latest Q400, they must be due to receive some moreshortly??
With more routes due to start and leases running out on the Jet fleet are they going to be able to cope????
Down in the Channel Islands we see a least four aircraft from the Q400 fleet and we can work out the servicability by the schedules they keep or not i the case may be
.
Yesterday it was a 146 down in Jersey going U.S. running 3 to 4 hours late in the afternoon but ended the day and hour late.

Dash 400s

Four might not give a good indication but that works out at nineteen percent we also have the transiting dash,s go through through the zone also Exeter Paris and the one operating out of Southampton and Bristol heading south so we do have an idea.
With the summer schedules due to start from tomorrow and building up each week till September we will be seeing a lot of q400s on saturdays.
Last summer you would have seen at least nine different aircraft transit through Jersey on a summer Saturday.
My point being we can expect the odd delay creeping in on Saturdays. nes pas??

I've not had one tech problem on the Q400 in over 11 months. Grow up all of you.

And what about CK's fuel tank sensors??
Recently had a doors warning, due to wiring loom being trapped in a shut door (poor design or what!!?)
Errm, nose oleo gas leaking out, tech'd the a/c for 7 hours in BRS
etc etc.
I like the a/c but it's not perfect!

Same Airline but on a different subject, are we going to see 146s or Q400s on the Southend-Jersey route this Summer. I remember we were promised 146s last year but I believe the whole program was flown by Q400s.
Also can the Flybe experts advise whether they have considered a midweek Southend-Jersey service. It seem to me that this could be quite attractive as it would offer far more flexible holiday options other than just 7 or 14 day trips. Local Travel Agents are offering short breaks to Jersey with outward flights from Southend but returning to Gatwick or vv. For practicality it must be better to start and return to SEN.
Presumably the economics of a midweek flight from SEN do not add up.
