I think there are quite a few of FR's Spanish to yet go on sale so there is still time. Leave judgement for a couple of months.

Looks like HUY-ALC is not returning next summer. By the looks of it due to FR cutting back at ALC that may be announced tomorrow.

No positive news currently. Chance of BE coming back to serve AGP supposidly..

Unfortunately it has been chopped. Confirmed below with a full list of airports chopped.

Bratislava, Brno, Cochstedt, Doncaster, Fez, Gdansk, Humberside, London-Gatwick, Madrid, Marrakech, Palma de Mallorca, Pisa, Poznan, Santander, Sevilla, Treviso, Valladolid and Zaragoza

Once again the airport loses out due to external factors beyond their control.

New MD appointed as of 1st January.

All reports I've heard this week so far is that he has started off where Lavan left it.

Another one who doesnt speak, acknowledge or interact with the workers.

I bet everyone at HUY is really excited!

It seems this is another attempt by Daniel Reilly, formerly of failed Nexus Airways at LPL.. Hopefully he can make it work this time around, but I'm not convinced

Albastar and CTT

Oh those of little faith. Its clear that an airline with a low cost base and identifying a clear demand for a route can make it work. The travel trade locally is desperate for this service as many people want a regular service to the western med.

have a look at company house for CTT; long established business with significant profits and strong turnover.

it deserves to work and it deserves support.

anyway, thats my view!

Well lets hope this time it actually works out. HUY has had a pretty poor run of new routes so far, and thats with established operators.

Story from e-tid:
Start-up chooses Humberside as first base
13 Jan 2012
A new airline will operate flights to Spain from Humberside Airport this summer.

Tickets for flights with jetXtra.com are on sale, with prices for its first two routes, Majorca and Malaga, starting at £69 one-way.

jetXtra is part of CCT Group Ltd and one of the start-up’s directors is Daniel Reilly, who made headlines in 2005 when, as an 18-year-old, he set up Nexus Airlines in his bedroom.

However, the business was wound up when its backer got into financial difficulties.

Since then, he was worked with Hunt&Palmer, the aircraft charter specialists.

Reilly, who is now 25, said: ‘Nexus Airlines sold really well – we sold 1,000 seats in our first week.

‘Everything went exactly as we wanted it to as far as sales and the popularity of flights were concerned but unfortunately, the company that was backing us financially fell into difficulties.

‘No customer lost out – we re-booked them on Monarch.

‘Since then, I have spent a fair bit of time in the industry, have gained a lot more experience and made a lot of contacts.

‘The new airline has the backing and support of an established tour operator, with all the expertise that brings. It is not a fly-by-night operation.’

The Humberside services to Majorca and Malaga will operate from 1 June to the end of October.

If successful, more routes will be added for the winter and summer 2013 seasons.

Reilly said the service will be ‘low cost, with extras’, such as free in-flight drinks and a baggage allowance of 15kg.

Passengers can pay £10.50 per leg to increase their baggage allowance to 20kg.

There are no fees for paying by credit or debit card.

‘Our aim is to bring a better service to the travelling public,’ he said.

Holiday Extras has signed an exclusive, long-term contract to offer travel insurance via the airline’s website.

Its website also says jetXtra.com has partnered with ‘alpharooms.com, holidayautos.com and travelextras.com to allow passengers to self package their holidays with great value hotels, car hire deals and other essentials’.

Grrr

Not an airline as such, just a ticketing agency.

What an awful website, typical affiliate links, white lable for the car hire etc.

If he wants to make a success of this they need a professional website, its ok for a starter ....

Also, I thought JQ was JetStar
