UPS
The local press are reporting that UPS have drawn-up plans for a new multi-million pound freight hub at the airport.
The planning application has yet to be submitted and no timescale has been suggested. I expect this is dependent on how quickly their business expands, but they did say their facility is currently working at 90% capacity at peak times.
An airport spokesperson indicated that EMA expects to exceed their best 12 month freight total sometime in the next 6 months, so things certainly seem to be picking up in this sector; Aerologic's expansion at the airport must be a factor in this.
This news also gives an indication that the current UPS facility might well be, as someone previousl suggested, the site which the airport has identified for a posssible "business terminal". In light of recent comments though, it might be put to better use as an arrivals hall..!

aerologic took delivery of their 8th 777 in October. They have 2 flights LEJ-EMA-LEJ and LEJ-EMA-BAH. Nothing heard on new routes, they tend to go eastbound but if things pick up transatlantic they could feature more

bmibaby summer 2011
Well bmibaby are set to release 'phase 2' of their summer 2011 schedule by the end of October according to their inflight mag and F.book page.
There's also the rumours of a couple of new routes to be added across the bases and hopefully we will see a couple more toys added to the fleet for next summer. I think the short-term reduction in fleet has helped out bmibaby over the tough couple of summers and surely this summer must have been one of their best performing ones for a while, especially in terms of using the facilities they have.

Probably not the correct forum so apologies in advance - any one know what was happening around the Holiday Inn this morning? When I came away from my freight forwarder the place was crawling with police and they seemed to have closed off the road.

So some printer ink? as it were has caused all this... firstly... that aircraft wasn't coming directly from Yemen, its a different aircraft from Yemen to Cologne, and then from Cologne-Philadelphia via EMA, so why wasn't this "suspicious" item checked in Germany??
