Jet2 to Paris
I wouldn't underestimate the eurodisney traffic, last time I used the service AF were falling all over themselves to provide a good child friendly service, and I know many high earning passengers that use this route for that very reason reason. We need to remember that it's PAX on seats and what they are prepared to pay that matter. I think its good Jet2 are providing some competition on this route, and Paris is always a good weekend destination to visit even if you don't have kids.

Man Paris route
Heard this rumour
from 8th August FlyBe will be all jet to Paris operated as follows
The 1 st Flight is a E195
The 2nd Flight is a E175
The Third Flight is a Mix of E195/E175 thats the lunch time 1
The E175/E195 will also operate 2 German Flights
The Frankfurt pm 4 ish and the Hannover 5 30 ish
As I said just what I heard but from a reliable source which would make sense as to Base the E175 at Glasgow which is not a E195 Base therefore lack of engineers maybe ..............
We await with bated breath will it be Guernsey/Glasgow/Exeter/Birmingham or Manchester
Regards to all

GLA will become an E195 base...its all rather confusing and keeps changing but the first E175 will go to GLA until September. This then swaps with the current INV based E195. The second E175 goes to Manchester to operate as you have posted plus some others such as JER and any W patterns from there to the likes of DSA.
Not sure where the third will go yet, possibly another MAN but more likely to be BHX or SOU.

Short answer, no. Basically some of the 'older' dashes are leaving the fleet although new ones are coming in. Nothing has been specifically said but I suspect that some Dash's will go on to other projects in the future, am sure BE Management are looking at different things as has widely been discussed.
The E175s are to help compete on business sectors that dont require the larger 195 but have a sector length which may be a little too long for the 'average' passenger to bare on a Q400 (if this makes sense!)

The thunderstorms were around, but not so violent. (I was playing golf at Styal through the afternoon, and my round was not disrupted.)
The storm did move south rather quickly however as once I reached the moors the storm had dissipated.
But we have to remember that A/C begin their approach through this **** way before they get to MAN!
You don't fly through storm cells old chap, no matter how violent the storms related to them may be
Some pretty hefty thunderstorms around Barcelona on the very same evening, resulting in several diverts away from BCN.

OK,
Back to LH then!
Not looking forward to having to fly BMI though.
Possibly the worst Customer care EVER!**

** I include Ryanair in that list!

Just saw a pair of Typhoons in formation on approach to 23R over Stockport. Does anyone know if they landed or were they just playing with the ILS...
