On the 'ramp' there are a multitude of differing jobs, do you mean the airport operated side of things, like airfield ops, security or a/c handling, baggage loading, catering, fueling, engineering, cleaning, or something else. It will either be with the airport direct or with any of the companies that supply services to the airlines etc. You need to narrow it down a bit to be more accurate.

Thanks for the respose so far, im talking more push backs and baggage, as i thought this would be via the handling agents! I suppose with us going into winter not as many jobs will be up at the moment!
Canada flights
Hopefully someone will have a clue about this...
What's the deal with flights to YVR from MAN? Wikipedia (I know, rubbish source) says Transat are starting YVR on the 29th Oct. However their website only has it from 4th May 2012 after TCX appear to finish it on the 29th Oct.
Any ideas? I'm loathe to traipse down south so my best other option to get to Vancouver in January appears to be KLM via AMS...

Rod, the rumour is that Air Canada have applied for slots for summer 2012.
Nothing new there but it may well tie up with your info.

Air Canada apply for slots every year since they left but have been happy to let BMI feed them over LHR, I'll let that one hang in the air for a mo.....

TCX are pulling out of MAN-Canada and so next year Air Transat are taking up the slack with 10 flights per week. Not sure how that breaks down across the destinations. YVR tends to be a summer-only route.
As for AC, true, they apply for slots every year and then hand them back. Not sure what the game is there. bmi may not be flying MAN-LHR next year (they may not even exist) and so it could be different.

Still no evidence on MAN's website about EasyJet and Monarch moving terminals. When Air France moved last year it was announced by now. Manchester Airport : Which Terminal Full List
I have heard KLM are moving as well.

Don't know what's been signed or not but as far as people at the base are concerned, including base management, the move is still on. Easyjet are supposed to be having Monarch's check in area.

Pier C is going to be pretty dead when ZB move out. I have never even seen a Jet2 737-300 there except for gate 21 which i think that gate is only used by Jet2, never seen anything else there anyway. Will this mean that TCX will be using pier C mainly because Pier B looks pretty full with LS & EZY and when I have used T1 over the years Pier B seems full with LS and Pier C looks full with ZB and TCX seem to use both piers.
Head also that ZB will mainly be using remote stands at T2. I dont like getting on buses to planes, rather go though an airbridge but looks like I am going have to live with it.

ZB will have no more remote stands out of T2 than they have out of T1, that's the contract. Check in will be so much better in T2, loads my room. It will be a good move for Mon.
