I take it then that a DK A333 is coming to the UK and not spending the Summer with Skyservice in Canada this year.

DK A333 will be as normally based in different Scandinavian cities during the
summer and the only DK A332 will be in UK. Of course the A333: s comming
to the UK from time to time, but they are not based there during the summers.

[Kestrel_Stu]

Yes the A333 based LGW this summer is the one which normally goes to Canada for the summer. This will be in addition to the regular DK A332 so 2 scandi 330s with TCX this summer.

What aircraft with the MON be at EMA which at the moment operates DLM and SSH

What aircraft with the MON be at EMA which at the moment operates DLM and SSH

This is a Thomas Cook thread, should post to, or look for the answer to your question on the Monarch thread. My bet without doing any digging would be A320.

[OliWW]

I put it in the TCX thread because both these flights are operated by TCX on a MON aircraft!

[CentreFix25]

What type of aircraft currently/previously operated the routes then? Might be a bit of a pointer!

[OliWW]

It will be the first time MON will be operating out of EMA, but on behalf of TCX, In Jul/Aug TCX use BD with a A320/A321

[Cloud1]

Are TCX operating any flights into Exeter summer 09? Rumours on the apron suggest they will have a 'reasonable' presence despite having 2 a/c based up the road in BRS. Are there any W pattern flights using TCX aircraft?

[G-STAW]

evening guys,

servisair commenced ground handling with TCX at MAN about 15 minutes ago, look forward to working with you guys....

EXT will see a weekly (Sat) A320 do Palma on a W pattern from BRS. Starts 2 May till end Sep.

NWI and EDI also get W patterns this summer, but LTN and LPL will not.

[Cloud1]

Many thanks Kestrel Stu - not what I would consider a 'reasonable presence' but thats the Exeter folk for you - overexcited about little things

With any luck, now that we have lost Futura, TCX may operate additional services if the PMI goes well.

[OliWW]

I think the handover at EMA was about 2.15am

[MarkBHX]

The MON flights out of EMA are showing as a capacity of 229Y, so I'm guessing B757, operated by MON on behalf of TC Holidays.

Apparently TCX are subbing in for Air Slovakia BHX-BTS tonight, anyone have more info??

Does anyone know if the A333 is operating in with the standard A332 seating, ie 33" in Y and 35" in C, with the seat back TV's.

Update on TCX A330 Summer schedule

You forgot:

Monday

LGW - DLM(A333)

Yes, you read right - Dalaman in an A330-300!

[Robini]

Dalaman in an A330-300!

Oh god....A330-300 in the UK is not normal...but to DLM?!?!This is insane!

[airhumberside]

NWI and EDI also get W patterns this summer, but LTN and LPL will not.

HUY and DSA have also gained w patterns this summer. DSA-DLM and HUY-PMI/DLM. Dont know were from or what aircraft type though

[Kestrel_Stu]

HUY and DSA have also gained w patterns this summer. DSA-DLM and HUY-PMI/DLM. Dont know were from or what aircraft type though

Indeed - DSA actually gains DLM (Wed/A320) and MIR (Sun/B752). Both are W patterns from MAN-based aircraft.

HUY gets PMI (Sat/B752), DLM (Sun/A320) and AYT (Sun/B752), again MAN W patterns with the exception of PMI which is a LGW aircraft.

[CentreFix25]

Oh god....A330-300 in the UK is not normal...but to DLM?!?!This is insane!

No.

There's a thread starter for you, long haul aircraft flying short haul routes. I can think of A330s flying shorter sectors.
