im very aware emirates has been 2xdaily B777-300 for a few years now.
I was referring to EY upgrading from a daily A332 to a daily B773.
EY= etihad
EK=emirates

Whether this a timetable type or not, EY15 drops down to weekly from 26/10/08.

Now my head hurts

I can confirm that EY are not planning any downgrade in service this winter, just some timing changes. They are booming out of MAN.

Have QR loads picked up again since they re-timed their services? Pax numbers were dwindling a bit earlier in the year.

FlyZb

In a word - no!

However (well it can't be explained in one word) June is traditionally
the low season for most going East. The figure was 10569 down
quite a bit and less than 180 a flight if it operates daily.

Mind you even EK was down in June but still 298 a flight (about 70% full). EY however up to 11624 from 8695 but still below 200 a flight based on a daily service.

However all that will be forgotten no doubt for the next several months as pax figures climb.

Who did Manchester United charter to fly down to South Africa on Thursday? Was there an unusual airline or fancy VIP jet to take them?

Hi All,

First of all I would like to say hi to everyone, I have been following the comments made regarding MAN and as a frequent flyer through the airport I for one can't wait until the all the works in T1 are complete. I travel at least three times a month through this terminal to catch my flight to Hamburg sometimes with Lufthansa or others with Air Berlin. I work on the A380 project in Hamburg for Airbus UK. The new security area I think is great along with the new machines where you place your boarding card, very modern and efficent. I think Pier C needs re-building personally, doesn't look to bad now with the new carpet and seats, but from the outside at Gates 2 through to 10, it looks terrible, with loads dirty and VERY OLD windows! I am really fond of the airport, I've always flown from there wherever I have gone in the world and I'm proud to call it my local airport.

Anyone know when all of T1 will be complete and how is T2 coming along? I haven't flown from there since September 2003 and then they had purple carpets at the gate areas and much more seating than the gates at T1, has much changed there at all?

I have a question though, I went to book an Air Berlin flight for November earlier and notice there are no flights listed on their website after 31st October, does this mean that they are stopping their service to Manchester from the end of October? Their flights are normally 70% + full both ways, I thought they might cut the service down, but not stop it fully?!

I await your comments.

Regards,

Mat.

777?

And the prize goes to....

FlyZB.

The rest went on a right wild goose chase after EK and EY. Why does QR have such a low profile I wonder.

You missed the point , SWR ZRH Upgrade = A319 instead of FK100

Hamburg 2k8

AB Paderborn is bookable thro to March 2009, which seems to imply AB are not leaving Manchester.
I have asked AB re Hamburg from OCT- they said yes, it will become bookable from early July (?) , but like you rightly say, it still isn't.
They did the same last year, leaving it to the last minute for some reason. therefore they are losing bookings, as I have now booked with LH for a December trip.

Fedex

Understand the airport have been informed they are pulling out.
They were until very recently negotiating having a dedicated cargo handling facility built.
