Received an email from Links Air:

Good Morning

Thank you for your e-mail.

We have no flights to Belfast from Doncaster for the next few months, we are looking at the schedule to start at the beginning of June 2015.

The Flights will not be on sale till April 2015.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Many Thanks
Looks like they haven't dropped it after all!

Looking like tomorrows TOM to Montego Bay may not see a Dreamliner. The arrival into Manchester (TOM113) that should then position to DSA is being operated by 763 G-OOBM.

BBC News - Airport rail station 'had only 14 passengers in year'

Think it’s known as a “Parliamentary” train service. It’s a device to close stations without going through the required procedure. It is easier to run one train a week in only one direction so that travel is impossible. Pax figures fall from the station concerned and it becomes unviable.

Wizz to start a service to Lublin from September.

This brings them up to 10 destinations, incredible growth since 2006 considering all factors.

If there was a "You couldn't make it up" award for a route that 10 years would be considered bizarre, would DSA-KSC perhaps be a worthy award recipient ?

Note - nothing against Kosice, was there last month

Links Air C/S tell me that there has still been no decision on if the BHD route will resume this year, and that they will know one way or the other at the end of the month.

Links Air have cancelled all remaining flights to and from the Isle of Man this summer (although they still appear on their timetable). Very annoying for me as I was preparing to book a whole sequence.

No big deal.

While unfortunate it isn't the biggest of surprises and a lot of us were expecting it. Given the growth the airport has seen in recent months, growth to which Links hasn't contributed at all, losing such an unreliable airline won't matter too much I think.
