however the public are the ones who ultimately make or break airlines in the grand scheme of things. No passengers, no airline.

The GSM website timetable section has now caught up with the booking engine and shows that winter plans for the LPL/KFK route have now gone altogether, last flight by both sections is 30th October.
Strange that all the winter flights have been taken out because I know people that could not book their preferred dates in December because various dates in the Upgrade and Business classes were full.

Winter schedule for Knock?
Anybody know if the LPL/JFK termination for the Winter schedule means that the Knock service to NY will not operate? Similarly, in the absence of a GLA/BOS next Winter does this mean the end for Knock-Boston?

No GSM longhaul flights will be operated by Zoom, it was an error on their website. I believe that Zoom wouldn't touch their flights, the last time they code-shared, Zoom were not pleased at all with them.
All GSM flights departing Glasgow today are delayed.
AGP - Tech (Their new 737-800 returned back to stand) 2 hours late
ALC - 1 hour
TFS - Tech - 1 hour
BCN - 1.5 hours
PMI - 1.5 hours (Due to late inbounds.. as they where late out of GLA)
PFO - 1 hour (late inbound)
BOS - 1 hour (late inbound)

I have a interview next week for the B757/767 fleet. If its as bad as it sounds are people leaving GSM? If it doesn't get any better how long do you think they will be around for? I'm thinking of job security etc.

Beg to differ.....from what I can make out, Zoom are being brought-in on routes to Hamilton, Vancouver....even Liverpool to JFK is getting the Zoom treatment (all taken from the GSM website timetable section).

Some of the flights did show 'operated by oom', they have however changed them to 'operated by gsm'. However, they could be keeping it quiet. Unlikely though, I doubt Zoom have spare aircraft just sitting around.
We'll see.

GSM Operated by Zoom
Was a tech problem with website that showed flights being operated by Zoom, was fixed this morning and website now correct.
757 should be back in service in next few days and back at LPL to operate the JFK service.
Both 757 aircraft on lease from Icelandair will remain till the end of October at the earliest.

Second day running GLA has suffered, yesterday looked like this
EDI has not been much better recently, however ABZ & MME aren't faring too bad so far, so it's not all bad

If you have the chance to fly Zoom rather than Globespan snatch it. They do make some attempt to fly to schedule and their flights tend to arrive on the dates advertised. I have flown both Zoom and Globespan. Under NO circumstances will I fly Globespan again, but will Zoom.

Local news here in Manch stated this evening that the LPL-JFK route is to be reduced from daily to 5 days a week due to poor loads! Also hinted that the Knock stop could happen on every trip to help boost loads!
