PSR777

Cheers anyway PSR777....finally got CA to fly me thru LGW with TSC.....they are sorting me a flight now from ABZ-LGW......not too happy at flying TSC after a previous flight with them.....I'll sleep!!!

Jethros is reporting that 4 A320's and 6 B757's are due to finish their lease before Summer 2010. Does anyone know if TCX are going to extend the leases or are they being returned.

[Whitehatter]

I also read that, interesting that the A320s are a bit of a fleet oddity as they have V2500 motors and TCX seem to prefer CFM on the remainder. may be time to swap them out of the fleet....?

74 flights in a weekend from GLA last week......does the whole of glasgow emigrate at this time of year? why choose the october holiday over any other?

[GROUNDHOG]

Have read that TCX are not operating for Canadian Affair next year and that they ( Canadian Affair) will be using Canjet? Now this was on a non aviation website so may be completely untrue but since I want to book for February 2010 anyone know whasson please?

[Fernanjet]

feb 2010?

is it not normally a summer operation anyway that TCX operate?

and don't they have a contract for next summer to operate their flights already?

I thought they did....

[GROUNDHOG]

Thanks Fernanjet

Should have checked, put it down to old age, tried a date in June LGW/YVR and there TCX is! I thought they flew more flights in the Winter than shown on Canadian Affair website but obviously not so it is back to BA for me then!

There have been some changes to the Canadian Affair programme for Summer 2010 which basically see Thomas Cook and Air Transat replaced on the Gatwick-Halifax and Fredericton routes with a Canjet 737-800. The regional departures from places like Newcastle and Exeter to Toronto have also been pulled. Other than that, it's pretty much status quo for 2010 - one or two route frequencies reduced but nothing else too drastic.

www.exeter-airport.co.uk suggests Toronto is back for 2010 with TS A310 as previous years

[fl dutchman]

Flightrider. NCL - Toronto is still flying in Summer 2010 with Air Transat

[Flightrider]

Apologies - NCL + EXT must have been recent (re-) additions to the programme. They certainly were not on sale nor included in the first run Canadian Affair brochure.

[goldeneye]

NCL and EXT are operating on a reduced season, for Summer 2010, they are on the same TS aircraft as a double drop on an A310.

YHZ is being operated on an Canjet 737 but seems to be under a TS flight number. YFC seems to be off sale so not sure if it will indeed operated for Summer 2010.

TCX are operating all GLA, MAN and BHX flights for Canadian Affair. TCX are operaing LON along with TS and Canjet.

TCX Bases, W09/10 & Summer 2010

Hi, does anyone know the what will be based where for this coming winter season?
Also, Is there any information about what will be based where for next summer, and if not when?
Thanks

[ROSSKi MYT]

All i can say is for Glasgow- w09/10 2 757 and for S10 4 757 and 1 A330

[david1994]

All i can say is that BFS for Winter 09/10 1 A320 and for Summer 10 1 A320

[Fernanjet]

EMA - 2 x A320 with a couple of 757 visits per week
BRS - 1 x A320
BHX - 2 x B752
STN - 1 x A321
LBA - Just a couple of A320 visits per week
LPL - 2 x A320 visits on 1st and 2nd DEC
LGW - 1 X B753, 2 x A330, 3 x B752 plus 1 or 2 A321 visits per week
MAN - 2 x A330, 2 x B752, 1 x B763, 1 x A320, 1 x A321
CWL - 4 x A320 flights and 1 x B752 flights per week

I think.......more or less correct!

[MUFC_fan]

Is MAN TCX's biggest base in the summer as well as the winter?

[Fernanjet]

MAn and LGW are pretty much equal year round.....with regards to number

[SWBKCB]

Newcastle?
