MANCHESTER - 2
AAs MAN-BOS was their most profitable European route. Strange that it should be dropped. Are sure it's not just seasonal. I'm sure it will be back again next winter 07.
SQs 744 MAN-ZRH-SIN being dropped was announced ages ago. The new Schedule will be a daily 777 possibly a -300ER.

If AA does drop BOS-MAN (still havn't seen anything official), then FlyGlobespan might be in a good position to take over the route- AA have already shown demand for a route, which did not offer connections, plus the traffic was mainly leisure based, so GSM would be in a great position to launch the route, alongside Cape Town and Toronto. This is assuming they have the aircraft.

Could be Jet2? Where has this rumour appeared from?
It could be SkyEurope, but as they are dropping Krakow from the winter season (this is correct, right?), they would either have to open a base at Gdansk, or W it from Bratislava.....
Which airlines, exactly, are left at MAN now?! They havn't done a very good job of retaining services recently. Some good news to come, maybe....

Turin,
Have you got a source for that ? If it were their most profitable route why was operated with a B757 with no 1st class ?

I can only assume that there were not enough passengers to fill anything bigger, IE B767. Bit silly to fly a 767 half empty when you can fill a 757. Also, how many airlines do you know that operate transatlantic flights from MAN with a 1st class cabin?

Just looked on the AA web site and it shows
Miami - Manchester in the system over the
winter period all the way to April 8th.
The Boston - Manchester shows all the way
to December 12th.
Is everyone hyper-ventilating over nothing!
This seems to have been the pattern for AA
these last few years.........
Who started this rumour off anyway?

Coming thru' MAN this morning I was told for the hundredth time that "BMI are pulling off the LHR route" 
As they are still selling seats well into December I don't actually believe this rumour. Could someone in the know kill it or suggest a plausible explanation (Baby taking over?) Ta

e-mail from AA
Just got this in my e-mail, as they say "from the horses mouth."
Hello all,
I have received a mail from American Airlines after i queried the
rumoured ceasation of the BOS-MAN service that i am booked on in
November. The official reply is:
"The end date for the seasonal service between Boston and Manchester
will be Dec 14, 2006. The restart date will be in the beginning of
April 2007".
Should put an end to that one.
Gaz......

Well said jongeman! I wish people would wait and see before subjecting the rest of us to mass panick! MAN may not be going through its finest hour at the minute but that doesn't mean every single airline is going to be dropping routes! There was sheer panic on another websites forum not long ago because LS hadn't released MAN - LGW for the winter. 2 days later it was released! Have more faith guys, patience is a virtue...
