Sun route increases.

In contrast to what has been said on here about BE's sun routes and prices especially from SOU it looks as though they are doing rather well as along with AGP and ALC from EXT they will be increased for the peak season between 8th July and 22nd September.

From Exeter:

Alicante goes from 4 to 5 weekly

Malaga goes from 4 to 5 weekly

From Southampton:

Alicante goes from 5 to 7 weekly

Faro goes from 3 to 6 weekly (2 flights on Saturday)

Malaga goes from 4 to 7 weekly

Nice goes from 3 to 5 weekly

Palma goes from 4 to 6 weekly

No wonder Flybe gave up Den Helder venture after only few days. Checked fares and these were almost not affordable for anyone wishing to travel to Netherlands but oil business employees.

Are the aircraft for the summer holidays sun routes pulled from somewhere else? It's not obvious to me....

Do you have an online source for the Exeter based emb175? We are nearly at the end of March is this something for April?

175's

Maverick8701

I have checked one GDS source and flybe and the Exeter flights are still showing as Q400's in April May and June.

The 175's have been switched a bit with them currently showing: -

3 @ BHX (EDI, GLA & DUS in the morning)
2 @ MAN (BHD & CDG in the morning)
2 @ INV (MAN & LGW)
1 @ JER (LGW)
1 @ GCI (LGW)

Jethro's shows further 175's due March, April and May but I read somewhere that there might be a delay although there is still 11 days left this month.

I had a quick scour of the network but couldn't see any other major changes as yet

Only 1 x 175 coming this year, the 3 others have apparently been deferred. EXT was due one but not anymore.

OltonPete thanks for your research. I had heard a rumour that the emb175's were unable to be deffered however not heard that confirmed. Anybody with knowledge of this? I assume if they arrive they will just swap out with q400 returns.

FlyBe have put their winter 2013/14 flights on sale. Flights can now be booked until February 2014.

Overall seems pretty similar to usual currently however there's currently no flights at all from London Luton (LTN) after October 2013. Is that usual? Has there been no BE flights from LTN in previous winters?

Luton

A test booking today threw up two additional destinations available from Luton - Milan and Glasgow, both in direct competition with EZY. Neither route features in the online timetable. I suspect a glitch!

Has there been no BE flights from LTN in previous winters?
This winter saw a break in both IOM and JER flights between about Jan and Mar. Also, bear in mind that BA have started IOM-LCY flights recently. I suspect BEE do not have critical mass at Luton, so these flights are not core business for them. If they increased frequencies on these, moved on to the Waterford route, and perhaps moved some flights up from LGW they would start to generate more local awareness and could prosper.

Same thing happened with WAT-BHX last year. Was added and then removed from booking system (like it has been now) and was announced a week later.

If they increased frequencies on these, moved on to the Waterford route.
Hopefully!

GCI - LGW

The new E175 service starts next week I'm struggling to see when the 1st one arrives. The 1st one out 10.25 Sun 31/3/2013 appears to be E175 but the last one in on 30/3/2013 is a dash. Surely they then wont fly the dash back empty and the E175 in empty !!

Quite possibly that will be the case as the rumour is they are crewing the E175 from the UK, I don't think any of the Guernsey based flight crew have been rated on it.

Apparently flymaybe have cancelled a bunch of their new BCN routes as they haven't filled them. Turns out some half wit forgot to get some advertising done. Shock horror, the British public ont automatically think of flybe when they want to fly somewhere. Idiots.

Flybe SOU BCN

Disappointing for SOU if the BCN route is cancelled already. Intention to fly SOU BCN ensured that Vueling ditched the route, now leaving SOU without a BCN route.


However, Vueling move the route to LGW...
