Bagso, may I refer you to posts 4237 & 4238 regarding Sept. statistics.

Not as outstanding as August's but still a creditable performance.

Those Rouge flights have been bookable for about a month. No sign of the 'extended season' being uploaded to the AC website yet, however, April is still appearing in GDS.

The planned ACR YYZ is loaded but not live for 2015, so frequency not available for April yet. Expect 3 times/wk

With all due respect - not the most appropriate use of smilies in a post.
People will be losing their jobs in Blackpool.
Not the kind of expansion at MAN that we want really on the back of that.

Sorry I'm just used to putting smileys when I type But yes I do agree this is bad news for UK Aviation and I wish good luck to those involved

Sarah19981 Re Hainan

Read post #4114 on Manchester Thread. LAX LHR is a very reliable source for information.

Nah he just spends his days surfing GDS to be the first to post. This is the guy who argued blind American would be operating MAN-CLT in 2015 as there would be no need to consolidate post merger and that DL would be starting MAN-DTW imminently.
LAX_LHR said :
Im assuming MAN are waiting for the optimal time to jointly announce the new Hainan route. Its definitely confirmed, as they have appointed a ticket agent and station manager at MAN, and, the Vice CEO good as announced the Manchester route was due to start 'next year', back on Sept 4th when the launched the Paris-Xi'an route.
Hainan remains as a WIP as Air China have put in the legwork and the politics is a little messy around who gets this one. So by "definitely confirmed" read not bookable, no press release and no start date announced in the same year Cathay are stepping back into HKG-MAN. I suspect Air China will want to gatecrash this party as they are very close to CX even though they are in different alliances, however time will tell.
But despite the Chancellor's statement, the airport has insisted no agreement is yet in place.
So Hainan have authority existing obstacles to someone else flying the route were over stated in terms of misunderstood bilateral issues.

It's OK I'm on his blocked list, but my feeling is this one will drag on for a bit, although I think MAN-PEK will be a good addition and quite soon. It's the "who" I wonder about.

In relation to CLT, there's quite a lot of coverage in the US press about the merged AA/US downscaling the Charlotte hub, so I would imagine that the chances of the MAN-CLT service resuming next year are close to zero.

Even in 2014 it looked as though it was struggling to achieve yield, judging by the fact that it was usually wide open for redemption bookings in both classes.
