Who wet-leases Aurela B757 ?

Taxing at LGW yesterday, I spotted an Aurela B757 by a gate at the North Terminal (I think). Was just wondering if someone here knows who wet-leases them ? Very nice to see as Lithuania is still suffering pretty badly in the downturn (which cost it its national airline, but that's a long story).

Cheers for the info, sam1993 !
Very good business for Aurela this summer then, I read one of their 737 is on wet-lease to Star1 (you won't know these guys at LGW, as they go to STN )

EZY will open LGW-LXR 2 weekly from 3rd November.
From November FR will open new routes to Rome-CIA (daily) and Seville (3 weekly). Services to MAD will be increased.

Sadly LGW will lose Mexicana at the end of August(they are pulling out of all European routes) also Transavia at end October.
A few carriers and routes needed from LHR!

AB to move to LGW?

Air Berlin has apparently applied for slots at LGW for flights from TXL, HAJ & NUE. Anyone know more on this? Is this the start of yet another exodus from STN and does it herald increased cooperation with BA at LGW including codeshares perhaps?

Air Berlin may want to shift flights from London Stansted to London Gatwick for better market access to the London area and additional feeder opportunities on BA flights

At the start of the summer season, Pegasus launched 3 weekly to Dlm and 1 weekly to Ayt. Now it seems Dlm is 1x and Ayt is 1x via Bhx. Did they cut back their intended services to Lgw? A few weeks back, Saw was in the drop-down menu from Lgw, is this to come as well? Will they expand at Lgw next year?

jdcg - I fear you are right, this would be a blow to STN. At the moment TXL isn't served at all (got dropped a couple of years back) and HAJ is now in competition with Germanwings, but NUE is not served from the London area by anyone else. Only a matter of time before the remaining routes follow as happened with Norwegian.

Air Berlin

What other services would be left at STN if Air Berlin move HAJ , TXL and add a NUE to the LGW opperation ?

Bagmanlgw - with those routes removed, Dusseldorf (3 x daily), Munster (2 daily) and Paderborn (1 daily) will remain, plus a recently announced 4 x weekly ski route to Salzburg for the winter.

Munster, Paderborn and most of the Dusseldorf flights are all operated by Q400s so maybe it's just a matter of time before they're shifted as well to LGW. Although DUS would face competition from EZY and BE. If they could get the slots maybe they'd send them all to LCY (not currently possible in the morning rush) as BA have been mulling the LCY-DUS for quite some time.
Even the STN-SZG (A319) could move to LGW and take over the BA ops..
Bit sad to see them leaving STN as it's much more convenient for us and they've always been a pleasure to use...

Pier 1 is to be demolished and rebuilt in a north south alignment. This will get rid of the cul-de-sacs which causes them a headache.

The new remote stands (200 and somethings) were built in order to accommodate the pier 1 aircraft during the re-build.

Not heard of anything happening at Concorde House.
