Remember STN is a low cost airport, and as STN have a need for more long haul airlines, they would indeed offer a very good deal to PIA.

There's a very large Pakistani/Asian community in the East end of London which will no doubt make this service a total success. Still no idea where anyone gets their info from on these flights as no announcement on the STN website and I can't see them on PIA's site either.

It is confirmed that PIA flights operate twice weekly from STN commencing 25/7/06 - handled by Servisair on A310; business and economy config. Operating out at approx 1600. I don't know why PIA or STN are not announcing this through their web sites. . . . .

PIA?

It seems strange to announce a route (which hasn't even been announced yet) and then start it a week later. Especially a long haul route. What website is all the information from? I know I have asked it before but am just confused.

Jersey Service

Rumour that the Stansted to Jersey could be up graded to an ATR72 in the not to distant future.

Could this be due to the connections that Stansted offers.

If this is correct the route is showing good signs??

Going back to when Air UK operated the route in the summer there would be three return ATR72 flight a day.

Good on Atlantic Express for reviving the line between Stansted and Jersey>

Yep PIA are going to be operating a twice weekly service from STN, starting on the 25th July. Definatly with an A310.
Only know this as there is a rumour Manchester will be doing the weight and balance. Like we don't have enough of them to do already!

Who are you refering to in this?? There are lots of handling agents in Manchester bit harsh to assume we are all the same. PIA are NOT looked after by servisair at MAN if you are refering to their CLC.

SkyEurope are now offering flights from Stansted to three Croatian destinations:

Split
Zadar
Dubrovnik

VIA BRATISLAVA!

Also seems they may be introducing Stansted to Budapest... (direct)

Why would anyone fly with Sky Europe from STN when Wizz offer similar routes direct from Luton at reasonable frequencies?
And EZY operate to Rijeka from LTN.

Grrr

Stansted has better transport links.........than......? Not Luton I would suggest!

8-10 trains per hour to London, the quickest taking 22 minutes. M1 adjacent with links to London, the midlands and beyond.
