Thanks for the heads-up Phil.
Quoted from the airports website:-
"First Choice will serve Varadero, Juan Gualberto Gomez Airport (VRN) with fortnightly flights starting 13 May 2007 "
The last time I checked (VRN) is Verona. Varadero is VRA.
But hey - flights to VRN would also be good
An "Indian Subcontinent Questionaire" is now on the website, investigating demand for future routes.

New route to Goa from EMA with FCA startin in FEB 2008 weekly on a friday. so will have long haul with First Choice on:
Sunday - Varadero, Cuba *
Monday - Cancun, Mexico
Tuesday - Puerto Plata / Punta Cana, Dominican Republic *
Wednesday - Orlando Sanford, USA
Friday - Goa, India
2 More destinations and will require a based 767.
Sounds like FCA are takin EMA to heart. and with Kenya bein offered by airtours, it looks good for Long Haul from EMA.
Where could they look to fill the week?

On Leave-not back till next week, no work had begun before I started my leave-in fact have seen no project documentation-safety case or any other paper work yet-that does not mean of course that work is not imminent!
may be leaving work till summer IT season fully over as guessing we may lose stands while work in progress

The planning application for 150m extension on the west end has been lodged with NWLDC for some years, prior I think to the last work done, and I am sure that it was all encompassed within the existing boundaries-if the farm has been sold not sure it is connected

Just to let you know as well there is a three counties policing policy in place in NEMA. Officers from all 3 counties are present in almost equal amounts with specialist suport coming from the three counties as well.

Menzies seem to be really back on form after a dire start to the summer, which I think can simply be notched up to the fact that this has been their biggest season so far, and at the beginning they just weren't well prepared enough. Indeed, around June time top brass from aviance and Swissport UK were both rumoured to be at the airport looking at either replacing Menzies or establishing a third handling agent. However, Menzies have really got back into shape, and I've been told that they've had a lot of people from different airlines looking around their operation including First Choice and easyJet, whose contracts are up for renewal around February time, as well as bmi who will be looking at how their charters are going to be handled for S07. There are still the rumours about bmibaby/bmi regional front of house/dispatch moving over to Menzies, though as they've been going around since Menzies took over our ramp operations, and baby have only just taken on eight new CSAs over the last few months, I highly doubt we'll see this any time soon.

Interesting. Though you know Servisair will fight tooth & nail for the First Choice contract, after all we've been given numerous awards for handling them well over the years. easyJet I think will be more difficult to keep tabs on, particularly as they seem to be favouring Menzies elsewhere across the country.

So I've herd Menzies have the First Choice contract however aren't able to handle them over the winter so Servisair will continue till they are able to take the contract. I can't see Menzies taking easyJet at the moment as they don't have enough equipment to take the contract (assuming they will keep 3 A319 based) they keep borrowing conveyors from Servisair to do the Thomas Cook as it is, let alone 3 easy's and a First Choice! - I stand to be corrected though.
Anybody know when they're going to open the new central search area?
