A Titan 734 has just departed STN for SEN reportedly to operate two extra DUB flights today, in addition to the three flights scheduled, with the first departure at 0915L and the second at 1245L.

Last edited by Expressflight; 16th Apr 2018 at 07:28. Reason: details of second flight added

Ah...Planespeaking.

We are up to date & speed thanks.....regard the posts above now.

Titan a/c position anywhere within Europe most mornings to cover AOG`s...the reason I mentioned this particular one was the current debate on the SEN forum with mostly SEN input concerning the serviceability of STK EMB`s that`s all.

One Titan aircraft positioned into Luton from Lisbon last night (B757) night stopped to operate a charter to Ibiza this morning, so bang goes your theory. Any possible profit for Stobart this weekend gone out of the window having to sub in aircraft to cover tech aircraft.

The Titan aeroplane mentioned by c3b has now positioned into STN from IBZ...so?.

I`m none too sure whose theory has gone bang?..Mine tho was not a theory but fact.

Certainly correct in the last sentence regarding profit but with more general press statements from Stobart stating they have many millions available for building STK awareness,route development & promotions released from the sale of assets thru to 2022 then these latest sub charters will not be noticed.

if the 757 pos'nd back to base at STN empty from IBZ that's normal coz this is the start of the season flights
so the first inbounds back to blighty will be empty - those empty legs are costed in the summer series

Thanks rog747...

& perfectly correct...

Although the wording from c3b was poorly spaced it read partly as an "attempted correction" to my earlier post re Titan`s modus.

Onwards....

Yes, that's last winter I think when new routes were indeed announced.

If it’s in December ski routes would be obvious choice...probably some combination of two or three of Chambery, Innsbruck, Salzburg, Turin, Zurich, Turin and Verona.

Could even be EZY rather than BE...they tend to announce new routes in the weeks after the season goes on sale.

An interesting read and analysis of SEN - London Southend bounces back with 25% growth in 2017; two new carriers announced, Dublin and Amsterdam are top destinations

Nobody can doubt what Stobart have achieved (though using phrases such as "Off the charts growth" is a bit disingenuous when starting from such a low base), but no mention of how much they've spent?!?

There certainly are some interesting nuggets in that article along with some silly stats - top of which must be the doubling this year of airlines offering scheduled services, welcome as Air Malta and Loganair are.

I don't believe Edinburgh and Belfast would have been mentioned unless something is shortly to be announced.

Now, many contributors on this thread have stated that Bernard Lavelle is a man to be taken seriously. So when he states that SEN will reach 1.8 - 2 million pax this year, I'll do just that. Because the alternative is he has developed a severe case of Stobartitis.

Greater Anglia

I see from the banner across the top of the SEN website that Greater Anglia will be operating a full service this weekend, 24th and 25th April. Odd that; I wonder what strange calendar they're using as I reckon this weekend is April 21st and 22nd. How can they manage such basic bog ups?

We are already aware that those in charge of the Website are totally incompetent. Despite my critical emails to them I receive only nonsense replies.

Apologies if I have missed things - but is there news / development on the expanded baggage facilities for which - I think - planning permission was given a month or two back? I passed by today and everything looked the same.
