Flights to the states will be from MAN an LBA. I think its wishfull thinking for NCL. They need to start filling and making a profit on there current routes.

Jet2

Am I the only one who things its odd that they can't sustain a service from Manchester to Berlin as the only operator on the sector, yet they want to join four other established carriers on the Manchester to New York run selling premium seats?!

Genius move or bizarre move??? Know what I think

You'd have to say the door is wide open at the minute but will U2 take the plunge?!

Any further news on the U2 "will they / won't they" question at this stage?

The slots have been applied for so presumably they are sorting out aircraft etc. There is no doubt in my mind MAN is to turn orange soon, we just wait for an announcement.

Well that's put me in my place!!!

To be serious though there is not always smoke without fire.

By the way easy manager - I think we got your message the first time, but it's fun to speculate!!

I thought last year was the 1st time easyJet applied for slots, given the amount of kerfuffle it caused with press stories coming out, quotes from orangeland having to be amended, etc?

easyJet

Slots were applied for the Summer 2005 season.

Nothing was applied for in 2006 or 2007 - so easy manager's statement is already found to be lacking in substance.

Easy Manager I take it by the large red writing that you are somewhat keen to press you're point home this evening?!

Seriously though, I'm interested to know what makes you so absolutely sure that they are not going to fly from Manchester? Aviation by its very nature is dynamic and airline priorities can change all the time. Not so many moons ago word on the street was that BA were committed to Manchester, and they even had a nice shiny new Terminal so show it. Now look where BA's commitment to Manchester is.......nowhere!

It seems somewhat strange easy manager has made only 2 posts, both to deny they are interested in slots at Manchester. Wouldnt you have thought he/she would have had some comments to make on other easy rumours???????

Easy Manager, after your first post you never replied to my question asking what made you so sure that EZY wouldn't operate from Manchester. Your second post, as big and bold as it may be, still doesn't answer that question. It's simply an outlandish statement, which if you don't mind I'm going to take with a pinch of salt and carry on hoping that the future at MAN is orange.

If you would like to prove me wrong with some facts or at least opinions to back up your statement, then please do so.

Turkish Airlines

Seem set to increase to 11 per week from Summer 2008 if news/info reported on another forum is to be believed.

MUFC Fan - you can also add to that list BD's other long-haul to LAS or the Caribbean, roughly twice daily Toronto, 4 or 5 weekly to Vancouver and/or Calgary, and SV/LN/RB. It's still pretty good for a non-hub airport; a bit of growth would be nice.

On another note, it's pretty odd that easyjet WILL NEVER fly from MAN, seeing as the local population and local economy are so much bigger, more wealthy and more lucrative than neighbouring Liverpool. If the truth be told.
