BA, LHR 3 flights tomorrow (Thurs). Then 2/3 flights per day after that for a while. Night stopping aircraft resumes at the end of October. ( All subject to change of course)

KLM mainline return Winter schedule, 2 x daily.to start with, 3 x daily.towars the end of November. AF schedule seems to be all over the place. 1 x daily Mid morning E190 planned as it stands


Whats the difference between a Cancellation and a suspension? they can change their minds on either when things get better

Jet2 doing some consolidation this morning. PFO being combined with EDI and LCA with LBA originating flights.


Maybe so in "normal" times - in the current circumstances, nobody knows how the market will react over time so either term is pretty meaningless (which I think was the point of previous posts)

Regional airports may take a long time to recover, perhaps 5 years. The commercial airline and travel industries have probably never experienced such uncertainty for decades, if ever at all.

I agree, routes that were profitable pre-covid ought, once the virus has run it course which Johnson reckons should be Spring next year, have a reasonable chance of making a come back. A lot will depend on which carriers are left by then, and how much they will pull back to their core, most profitable routes. And of course there's the other elephant in the room - Brexit. If there is no deal then business travel may take longer to recover, if if sterling took a hit as a result (of Brexit) foreign holidays could become rather more expensive at a time of what is likely to be (due to Covid) a period of high unemployment and continued recession.

You need to remember that airlines have got rid of a large proportion of their fleet, and the corresponding workforce to operate it. They wont be bouncing back any time soon, regardless of what happens with the virus and the economy.

The above articles would suggest Eastern will resume service between NCL and SOU in the New Year, with codeshare connections to The Channel Islands with Guernsey's Aurigny Air Services.
Interestingly this will compete with Loganair's codeshare with Blue Island's services.

It certainly looks like Jersey to me.......If it is, both Loganair and Eastern seem tied in with interline connection agreements with Blue Islands and Aurigney respectively, both via Sounthampton..........so who could it be???
