HUMBERSIDE - 2
Thread Starter
Jet2 arent the problem. There are issues with the CAA regarding the ATOL licence they were selling flights on. I would assume they are having to take the website down in order to not mislead people with ATOL badges that were on there, and are awaiting further information from the CAA so they can get the site in order so as not to.make the same mistake again.
Its certainly not looking good for a June launch, and the fact that they put the flights on sale without the correct licences may suggest they arent as prifessional an operation as was hoped. Shame really as HUY could do with an extra few flights.

Have just had it re-confirmed that the established carrier they are talking to as an alternative to run the routes is Monarch. Its good when you know who has the loosest mouth of the senior/middle management.

I assume you mean to replace jetXtra. If so then they will be cutting it a bit fine for a June start.
Also, when Nexus failed werent all affected passengers rebooked onto Monarch from MAN? Could that no be the case with this?

loosest mouth??
tonto ...
Hope something comes of it but there is huge flaw in your conclusion. YOU might know, or think you know, the loosest mouth in senior/middle management, but you can bet your bottom dollar so do the people who REALLY matter! So it's odds on they won't tell 'em ANYTHING really worthwhile knowing that is commercially sensitive!

Absolutely Pug. All I said was they were in talks with another carrier, which as you correctly point out may mean that they dont fly out of HUY at all.
Olympic Holidays has signed a deal with Aegean Airlines to provide flights on key routes this summer.
Among the first routes announced is Humberside to Crete.

Hopefully this will bring some stability to Olympics programs from some airports. Hopefully LCA can return to a full season again next year.

Possible new route, from possible new airline Europort Express..

where is the mention of Humberside there?. Seems like someone is just talking about this as the 'website' is just a logo and nothing. No doubt it will come to nothing, Just like jetxtra

An update from jetXtra has appeared..
Hi folks, to keep everybody updated, we were left with little time to sell our summer flights after Jet2 dropped their legal challenge, as a result we had to take the difficult decision not to go ahead with them. We are not going anywhere though and wish to thank all those that sent in messages of support. We believe like many of you, that Humberside can be a great airport for the region and we are now working on future flights we can offer.

Heard a rumour that Richard Lake has bought HUY and surrounding land. Anyone know any more about this?
So far only the weekly BH Air flight to Bulgaria on sale for Summer 2013. Crete is not on sale with Olympic, it appears that the tuesday Aegean flight has been transfered to BFS. Thomas Cook are offering nothing whatsoever so far, though it looks like something is happening between HUY, LBA and DSA.
KLM next? Though would they really abandon their well established market there?
Thread Starter
I didnt say something is happening, just that it looks like tgere is something going on. People have been assured by Thomas Cook customer services that LBA and HUY will be on sale by mid June, however it is strange that these are the only airports omitted from the initial S13 program.. Particularly with LBA being a base.

Wigan Council agreed to vote in favour of MAG selling it's HUY shares at the Extraordinary General Meeting on 16th April. However I've no idea if that was 'just' Wigan wanting HUY sold, or if someone else had suggested the idea

I have also checked a number of other Greater Manchester council meeting agendas/minutes, and found nothing about any HUY sale. There is nothing on the North Lincolnshire Council website either
Also, if there had been a decision to sell HUY made in April, I'd have thought it would have been public by now

I'm led to believe that HUY has been sold to the above mentioned.
This all falls into line with new Management that are currently seriously over paid for jobs within EA but may be suited within the AP itself.
only time will tell.......
