Do you know you can get to anywhere in the world from LJLA not just EU.
I have just arrived back from New York and cost less than ex Manchester

On KLM?! I'd rather go by boat to be honest!

If they were to come up against EZY and FR, they would be wiped off the planet. The two airlines are soo powerful on the European stage it is frightening.
Alot like BA out of LHR and KLM out of AMS...simply unmatchable.

Virgin is gonig to 11 weekly from April next year (daily A330s, 4 weekly 747s). Not a lot of scope I believe to start double daily to Orlando as well as operating the Barbados and Las Vegas services given the fleet size (this also applies to any potential routes they're contemplating).
Elsewhere, it is reported that SQ is attracting F class passengers on the SIN-MAN-SIN (whch is really good to see) but this expansion is more to with cargo and will be even more interesting if one believes what will happen to this route in the medium term. Remember that A380s aren't the best aircraft to have operating when you carry a fair amount of freight so whilst 2 A380s are operating out of LHR, they need some more cargo capacity which is why it's commecially useful to operate daily services again to MAN.

A lot like, as I said, FR out of DUB, U2 out of LTN, BA out of LHR - dominant carriers.
Just because they dominate doesn't make them a quality carrier! Ryanair carry 70m people a year yet they are hardly SQ...
As I have said many times before, please read what you are posting before you actual post it! It saves us all the embarrassment...
Many thanks.

KLM simply dont compare service wise to other carriers imho, I have used them on a couple of occasions to the far east because I needed a cheap ticket, and cheap is what you get.
rapidman47 why is Manchester any more difficult to fly from than Liverpool, I use them both and quite frankly do not find it any more difficult at all.

On my trips to/from ATL, flying the 'Red Eye' across the pond to AMS and then doubling back was no fun. Delta to MAN was a breeze ( literally, given the tailwind). Do EI still serve LPL ?

As someone who lives roughly between Liverpool and Manchester I would choose Manchester every time, getting through security at Manchester is a doddle compared to Liverpool unless you want to pay that is!!

I take absolutely no notice whatsoever of either of DWLPL or Rapidman...over and over the LPL lot drag this thread down with petty childish "LPL's better than MAN" etc etc Liverpoolcentric is an understatement.
Please stop winding up folk who want talk MAN on this thread and stick to talking EZY & RYR on your very own LPL thread

Look DWLPL....there is nearly a page now of KLM/LPL v MAN etc...it is total tosh...who cares ! If you guys join our topic on positive topics re MAN then great, but comparing this and that is getting extremely boring !

Not for a long time my friend...I've matured
Size matters boys and your tiny
But I hope my young old friend Mr Rooney goes beserk, not with his mouth, but hitting the back of the net with the ball.

agree with comments about KLM being rubbish, flew with them from GLA-AMS-YVR, (Vancouver). On the long haul route almost any loco would have been equal on both legs and their complaints department was crap. If I had been a Dutchman it may have been different I think. They seem to me to be trading on an undeserved reputation.
