HUMBERSIDE - 2
The point about the comparison with Newcastle is a good one - timings, frequency, a/c size are almost identical, so looks like they see a similar size/type of market.

Well hats off to Huy's team , It may be a small route etc but its a flag carrier, I wonder if Dublin would work there using an Atr....
As for Dsa I still forsee some loco operator doing Cph from there.
As for the new route , Funds permiting Id use it.
Its nearer than the others apart from Dsa its a small airport so no big delays etc, All in all it looks good.
And Timmy , Huy is also our local airport , Lets not use it as another way to have a crack at Dsa.
They deserve local support, It is after all in a small way funded by North Lincs and thus from our Council Tax?

slow and steady
I think that the recent news about TFS in December shows that smaller tour operators are starting to think about taking up the areas of opportunity the the larger operators seem incapable of realising.
The recent Which magazine report for customer service for HUY can only be of benefit;l of course DSA scored 3rd, so it shows both airports are trying hard.

Sorry but the question has to be asked onyxcrowle but having read a lot of your posts on here have you just discovered the world of Aviation at the age of 39?
Iceland direct from Humberside?
How about Dubai direct on an A380 from Southend 3 times a day!?
Seriously!
What complete and utter S**t

On a more serious note. Hopefully CPH will work, and perhaps on the scheduled front a German destination at a push. As far as passenger flights go, I suspect leisure routes is where there will be growth in the future.

Cyber bully? Don't make me laugh. 
Just pointing out that your head is full of 'Pipe Dreams' on this forum.
No need for you to take things so personally or over react really is there.

Pan man I apologise for my outburst im suffering severe stress and depression of late due to ill health. Ive been given meds that seem to loosen the tounge in a way im not like in real life
So I apologise for my outbursts and odd posts to you all on here.
Im not actually crazy. Just going thru a private hell at the moment.
But I do care passionately about our community in the region as a whole. Its sad to see it in decline.
For example the recent rail landslip showed that an error made 37 years ago or whatever closed the perfect bypass rail route through part of the axholme joint. Now should it be partially reopened or even in full it would relive traffic along the Isle towns giving a much needed public service and allowing people with no car accses more direct routes south via haxey junction. Even if it went as far as the crowle line it would have served as a bypasd for the closure and saved all that upheaval. But it showed the weakness in our infrastuctre.
Now granted this has little to do with aviation. But highlights how public infrastructre IS for the commin good and is part of the wider community.
The asets and potential opertunities our two airports in North Lincolnshire /South Yorkshire are very much part of the community.
They in the case of Klm provide lifeline services for the oil industry.
So I dont think its pie in the sky to ask as a member of the community with two airports that are there to help fufil our needs and bring in wealth and opertunities into our local economy at a time when its needed most.
Where are the grants to subserdise new routes ad a kind of kiclstarter program to imcrease choice and genuine competition to the region.
To say that every idea ever suggested on here. Jet3 Ryanair. Easyjet. Bcy or whatever will never come seems defeatist. Im not talking daily flights from these.
But the fact is other northern airports started slow.
They do have links to the scottish capital.
I recall a codehsare flight from Lba - Sumburgh via Aberdeen back in 1995.
So it has been done in thr past.
Manchester has norwich. Not a route would seem to be popular yet it runs daily.
So why I ask the question and would like a respectful real explaination of why tjins are so slow east of the pennies.
I know Huy is a small airport but they have albiet dmall routes and charters have almodt monthly found new routes. And an significant one at that even if its a small route. But the first flag carrier to start a new route eastbof the big three MAN LBA LPL.
So why is DSA suffering. Does this mean Huy is back on the up. Does it have the space to exoand like DSA.
And also law of averages says eventually DSA will get new routes just like HUY. So who in your experience is likelky and to where.
Once again I apologise for my recent comments.
Ia a genuine supporter of both airports as I Still beleive they are for the public good.
Plese don't flame me for thid post.
But after reading on the Jet2 thread someone aluded to a possible Alicante base with poss flights to CWL and HUY. Now normally on here suggesting Jet two migrating to the east of the pennines is shot down on here in a blaze of ridicule.
And finally with HUY on the up if they keep it up what becomes of DSA

To answer your questions quickly and succintly, there are too many airports in too small of a region going after the same catchment area. Not just DSA and HUY but also EMA and LBA. It is simply not sustainable to spread traffic thinly across so many airports. Something has to - eventually - give.

Crowle.. If you look at Home - Humberside Airport you will find the answer to your question.. Start date, frequency, prices the lot....
