Mr Ryan, you don't seem to get the point do you, I assume that you must go under a fake name on here as none of the staff at the airport seem to know your name, I was asking as I feel as though it would be nice to put a face to the name, not to worry anyways, I flew out again yesterday morning on the 1530, good load as per but people still seem to be very unpleasant about the airport, one gentleman even stated that he is moving his future flight to NCL as he isn't pleased with the service.

The J32's are just filling in I believe as Eastern have a lot on their plate in future, route cutting will come next I believe or maybe W patterns so I wouldn't be surprised to see developments with the MME route... however watch this space. I'm looking forward to using the E175's once we eventually get them!

Did he say what his complaint is?

Well if stopping pax from the 1530 from stalking you at work isn't a good reason for using a fake name, I don't know what would be!

Obviously I use my real name though.

Read into this what you will, but lots of chatter around the airport suggesting tomorrow is going to be a very good day...

Looks like Loganair 3 daily to Aberdeen and 1 daily to Norwich.

Loganair striking back at the Eastern/Flybe partnership?

Oh well it's news..so that's goodbye to the eastern base? Or will ,as probable just be a rebranding of The Jetstream route? Norwich...will be an interesting route..unless of course it's just confirmation of the Sunday only schedule?
We will see..

Is there the demand for both on ABZ route
This could end badly if T3 pull out and loganair can't make money on it

All speculation but gut feeling is they will take over the route and one of the rotations will include Norwich?
Hope the figures improve though as they are nothing short of disastrous over the last few months.
At least prices should be cheaper than Eastern!!

Probably a power game to create some leverage. If you play in our forecourt, we will play in your's - and let's see who has the deeper pockets.

Durham Tees Valley Airport: Introduction of new airline will provide a 'shot in the arm' - Gazette Live

Bit of a double-edged sword, LOG and Eastern/Flybe clearly intent on going head to head - can't see them both succeeding and MME might end up being collateral damage.

Being more positive, interesting comment from the Loganair managing director in the link above:

“We’re looking forward to beginning a long and successful working relationship with Durham Tees Valley Airport and intend to announce further service developments at DTVA in the coming months.”

Going back to the early 70s Air Anglia had a NWI-MME-ABZ service using F27s I believe. Plus ca change and all that.
