There are no A330 scheduled to operate any short-haul flights this summer, unless its a last min change for operational reasons.

These flights are to be operated by the Boeing 757-200 in the Canadian configuration of 35" seat pitch.

Monday - TCX63K/L 0600 PMI
Tuesday - TCX426K/L 0815 PMI
Thursday - TCX420K/L 0650 FAO
Friday - TCX402K 0915 IBZ
Saturday - TCX490K PMI

Manchester short-haul is being operated by Boeing 757-200 (187), Boeing 757-200, Boeing 767, Airbus A320 and A321's this summer.

Not entirely sure what your problem with ex-MYT aircraft is. If the 767 that is with MON was a mess, then that's Monarchs issue. They are responsible for the upkeep. With regards to the smaller ex-MYT aircraft, they were all refitted with leather seating pre merger and certainly in the last summer pre-merger we carried the lowest number of defects I have seen on any carrier I have worked for.

If you want a squeeky clean a/c, then fly on an operator that only uses it for 10 hours a day. Ours are heavily used, and yes sometimes the cleaning isn't absolutely spot on but the interiors are all pretty good. The worst part is normally the Flight Deck!!!

In my opinion, the important part of the upkeep of ALL aircraft is to keep it flying safely. If the turnround is tight and the cleaning isnt up to scratch...so be it. If its safe and airworthy...who cares about a bit of mess now and again.

The A330 will not operate shorthaul this September from Manchester.

And there were no A330's in LPA yesterday....A320,A321, B752 only

Sorry if this seems like a spotters question, but I asked it on the spotting area and never got a reply, but does anyone know what aircraft/reg will be operating EMA-MAH this coming Sunday?, Got a feeling it might be G-KKAZ?

Rubbish

Who cares about a mess? The passengers, Cabin Crew, and Pilots. Dirty a/c leads to slipshod standards. Not having a pop at Envoy, just presenting the view from the workers at the coalface. Cleanliness IS important as part of a good safety culture. Most of us who fly believe that. (Not the OTP fanatics, naturally)

Are TCX still operating the MAN-YYZ with the B752 (187) on a daily basis because it is not showing as daily on the TCX website(when I last looked) but is on the CA website.

Also there is supposedly an addition flight on Saturday TCX 143 which is operated by the LGW based 333. What is the routing of this flight and does it do any other flights from MAN because there seems to be no inbound YYZ-MAN

I think you can safely say it's scrapped!

This does not look good
In this article
Porsche on the financial brink - Telegraph

it says:
"The crisis is yet another headache for the German authorities as they put together a rescue deal this week for Opel, most likely with Fiat. Separately, the hotel and retail group Arcandor said it faced collapse without a €650m state bail-out. Arcandor's share price fell 20pc. The company owns the Karstadt department stores, Quelle, and Thomas Cook. It employs 50,000 workers."
Who would buy Thomas Cook?

Could see Kuoni being interested in Arcandor's stake.
But then who know what will happen.

Oh Lord!

Thomas Cook is a major and profitable part of Arcandor...eminently saleable. Warkman, your conclusion is daft or mischevious...too much ignorant doom-saying going on at the moment.

Not all MP's are dishonest. By any means. Not all holiday companies are unprofitable today. Thomas Cook are profitable. Ditto TUI.

I believe you think Thomas Cook is an airline. Not so.
