Code shares
Egnxema,
If that is the case then it will be a tremendous boost for EMA as the lack of onward connectivity has always been a week point for the airport.
In light of BE's recent announcements regarding code shares with KLM do you think this will be extended to their EMA-AMS route?
It certainly is the case that WW's demise, however tragic it was for all their employees, it has provided opportunities at the airport for new airlines and hopefully a little less reliance on the Low Cost sector, although this, together with freight, will always be the main focus at EMA.

BE/AF
I think that all BE flights from BHX, EXT, MAN etc to CDG all carry the AF code aswell so would be surprised if they didn't from EMA too. That would certainly open up the world from EMA at long last!

With the AF codes would one be able to fly Flybe to CDG and connect with their alliance members like Etihad etc? Rather than trundling down to London etc.

FlyBE / Etihad
Ramper
The Etihad agreement appears to be a "beyond Manchester" deal. Ie all domestic services connecting with the EY MAN service carry an EY code share. The only current exception is BHXDUS.

Very sad to see EMA without any AMS, CDG, GLA, EDI flights this morning... The GLA route must have been running continuously since the airport opened in 1965, and CDG and AMS for not much less a period.
Hopefully the WW staff who lose out because of today's downsize find other gainful work, and not too many regulars on these routes try other airports such as BHX, don't get to like them too much, and come back to EMA when FlyBe finally get their act together.

Does anyone know what the issue is with TCX5055 which was due in from Larnaca overnight? Almost at a 12 hour delay so far with next info at 13.30.
Seems to have been quite a few delays recently at EMA, including with some WW aircraft.

DHL
It appears from the following DHL press release that they are looking to introduce a service to China from EMA.
Planned investment in China and the North Asia region
Over the next two years, DHL’s planned investment of US$132 million (€100 million) will increase the dedicated capacity of its Asia Air Network by deploying eight freighter aircraft between Shanghai and North Asia, Europe and the US. The planned flights will be operated by partner and equity-held airlines: Polar Air, Aerologic, and DHL Air UK. There will be a variety of other providers as well.
Building on existing direct connections between the DHL Express North Asia Hub in Shanghai to Hong Kong, Osaka, Tokyo, and DHL’s global hubs in Leipzig and Cincinnati, the planned investments in the next two years will enhance capacity on these routes and also include new connections between Shanghai to East Midlands, UK.
