Pegasus Airlines

Is it true Pegasus Airlines are pulling out of Stansted??
They are definitely staying as they have slots confirmed for next years summer schedule. What I have heard through the grape vine is that they will be handled by Swissport instead of Menzies.

But then I came across this...

Flights from STN - ADB & SAW are still bootable on the Pegasus Airlines website. I've just tried to make a booking for April 2014.

Could be an issue on STN website as the flights on Pegasus site, you know, the actual airline in question, are still bookable after March.

Yes a move could be possible but lets not count your chickens yet.

All flights from STN seem book able after March. I've just looked on the Pegasus Airlines website.

Pegasus flights are still bookable from Stansted on their own website and the Stansted website as well. No results on the Luton website and nothing mentioning Luton on the Pegasus website.

Somebody has put Pegasus on the Luton Wikipedia page but with no links or references to support it. The fact that whoever it is has put Ankara as a destination as well makes it seem even more questionable. Unless of course this relates to somebody who has seen this on here and decided to change it on Wikipedia anyway.

I'm not saying it won't happen. It wouldn't be the first airline to leave Stansted and move elsewhere but could I ask Boeing737-8 where you have heard about this??

Ok, timetable on Stansted website shows flights up until 13 April 2014, but flight bookings can be made through the whole of summer 2014 on both Stansted and Pegasus websites.

And did you really just say that the place where you have first heard about this is the "Luton thread"

Means nothing, I'll ask again. Where did you hear about Pegasus moving from Stansted to Luton???

Pegasus

Remember when MAG took over London's third airport and there were rumours of Wizz getting a poaching from London's fourth? Nothing happened.

Pegasus moving to Luton? Clutching at straws if you ask me.

Oh hang on... Wikipedia is FACT!

Looks like hostilities in the ongoing Luton v Stansted war are about to break out again - flak jackets on everyone...

From 1st November ALL passengers (including Ryanair) will be allowed to carry one shopping bag alongside their cabin bag at Stansted.

Stansted: Shops and restaurants at Stansted Airport

Also, a quick video showing the progress of the £80m redevelopment. The new Check-in area is already complete, ready for the new Security area which will open within months, possibly as early as December.


Also, Airblue who is reported to be starting a service next year to Lahore has an ad image for London on their home page. It's nothing major. It just simply says "London" on a very nice picture of Westminster at dusk.

Unless they are being naughty as implying Birmingham or Manchester as an entry to London then maybe we might hear something fairly soon.

: : : airblue : : :
(you'll need to wait for the images to change until it comes up)

Menzies Handling TCX 2014

Rumour has it TCX are talking with Menzies for a new nationwide contract as they are not happy with the service they are receiving from Swissport at UK stations. Looks like Menzies are going to be busy with 2 x a321 at STN!!
