In the past a few of MAN's European carriers have tweeked their flights and reduced frequency for a short time during the summer to reflect lower business demand. Its usually for about a month they tend to do it, I recall Finnair and Scandinavian doing this in recent years.
Are we definitely expecting an Easy announcement next week then?

EZY cabin staff flight announcement last week MAD to LGW flight "check website for great new routes from lgw ema man and ...."
I am not saying this didnt happen but i would be very very suprised, EZY are a stock market listed company and anything that can effect the shares price must be announced through there broker to the market....No doubt whatsoever that a new base at Manchester/Expansion would have to be told to the market first.....Easy would be looking at all kind of investigations from the FSA if they made an announcement like this through the P.A. of one of there flights before they told the market.
Make no bones about it....the first place that the announcement willl be heard will be through the stock market.

EZY Announcement
I would very surprised if they announce anything next week. A P.R person told me that these types of announcements get lost in the Christmas hype etc.It would be more likely to be in the New Year.

I would have thought that IF they are to start in the first quarter of 2008, they would want to get the flights on sale ASAP so an announcement sooner rather than later would be desirable. Traditionally, people start thinking about holidays during the festive season.
And if they do it right they can be part of the Christmas hype ......

Supposedly three based a/c at MAN to operate BFS x 3 daily and daily services to AGP, BRU, TLS, HAM, PMI, and RAK. Outside-based aircraft to operate daily MAD, LYS, MXP and GVA.
I am assuming that you are talking about the ex GB routes being on sale.
IF the above list posted earlier is anywhere near correct, then there are still plenty of seats that are not yet on sale

Runway 23 ILS
Scottie Dog and anyone else interested,
An ILS for RWY 23L is on the wishlist but more pressing is an upgrade to CATIIIB for the existing ILS on 05R. What is planned (subject to funding, which is currently not approved) is for the present 05R ILS to be relocated onto 23L and a new CAT IIIB installed on 05R. I can confirm that the existing05R ILS is not ex-LHR but was bought new via RACAL (now THALES), it is a Navia model 7000. Ideally we will do this prior to withdrawing CAT III capability temporarily on 05L-23R during the planned major refurb 2009-10. The big cost of upgrading any runway to CAT III is not ILS but lighting.
