There are alot of routes that have failed from 'nowhere to nowhere' such as LPL-ABZ/INV.

There have also been alot of routes that have failed that go from 'nowhere to somewhere' such as BLK-STN. These are just a couple of examples from the North West of England and I am sure there are many more around Europe.

FR just need to keep using trial and error as they have been doing for quite some time until they find routes that work and make good money.

In the case of BLK-STN, was it more the case that it was the early morning STN departure, (was it 0640??) dragged down the load factors.The completion of works on the West Coast rail line probably did it no favours either.

Shannon to Salzburg is still showing in the book now section. Does anyone know if this is a system glitch or is this route going to be announced?

Help Please!

I booked a flight on the 23rd march for a friend. The last letters of his surname should end TOCK. We have just noticed the confirmation that has come back spells the last of the surname TOCADT. There is no way that I typed that in.

I have been trying to contact Ryanair reservations on 08712460000 as per the web site, but I just keep getting a message saying that the person on the other end has hung up. I cannot find an email address. Can anyone get me another telephone number or email address to sort this please? And how might they treat this?

Thanks

@ True Blue - Nothing to worry about. The ADT is a system problem and Ryanair advised 2 weeks ago of the problem. No need to worry.

I have an urgent need to get to Dublin this week from BRS...

FR website totally screwed up, won't show any flights to "Select"; friend on another computer gets same result.

I guess that no-one's told them because why would you at £1 per minute!

If you do try to contact them on the UK number (I cracked in the end using a cheap access route), there's a "Number Unobtainable" tone.

If you try the Irish number (cheap route again) there's no reply.

Still, no problem, there always EXT or BHX.

Anyone know what's going on?

Bankruptcy? Closed down by Irish CAA? UK CAA? Taken the money and run?
Strike? IT staff getting revenge? St Patricks day a bit late?

a colleague of mine is experienceing similar difficulties. Taken her an hour to try and book a flight for her husband......won't be using them again as in the end she's booked with Aer Lingus....

These new systems will have cost MOL a fortune. Guarantee there will be a note of it in the interim reports.....has to be for investor requirments. Too many issues that this can't be hidden.

So do I just leave this as it is? Will check in at Stn and Bhd be aware of this issue and accept our explanation at check-in?

Just thought, we will be checking in on-line.

Dystem is taking 1st 3 letters of passenger surname and then appending teh code for an Adult passenger (ADT). So you should be fine.

I work in the travel industry and see numerous of these concatanations (spelling??).

New routes from BRE

Jade, I think you may have got the wrong end of the stick.

If the rumours are to be believed, BRE-BVA and BRE-BTS are for the chop. BRE-BGY will be reduced to 4x wkly, BRE-AGP, BRE-PMI and BRE-EDI will all be increased to 4x wkly and there will be new routes from BRE to Salzburg and Haugesund.

That's if you believe the rumours...

@ True Blue - here's the official take on the ADT glitch.....
Important Information regarding Email Travel Itineraries

Since moving to our new system last week, we have experienced some minor problems with the presentation of passenger names in the email itinerary sent to customers after a flight is purchased. Some passengers' surnames appear in the email with the letters ADT added to the end of the surname. We would like reassure all customers that the full surname (as booked) is correctly stored in our booking system and will not impact the booking process.

Promising news considering it's not even started yet! They've certainly got off to a good start with ALC anyway.

In what way...are loads good ? Surely this will impact on existing carriers...do GSM and EZY not operate to ALC from EDI ?

Yep, 170+ over Easter weekend (suppose demand might be stronger than normal, but it's still a good sign to see it that busy, Easter or not). 183 booked on EDI-ALC tomorrow, ALC-EDI loads have been hovering around the 130 mark.
EZY only operate 2x weekly summer only, and there's plenty of demand for them to fill their flights in the summer, plus FR are only operating 4x weekly.
GSM will be operating 6x weekly but once again I expect there will be enough pax to go round (especially when there's only 1 charter flight a week) in the summer. I can see FR hurting GSM in the winter though assuming they keep ALC operating, especially if GSM stick with their EDI-GLA combos.
