OOOps...sorry wrong year...must have got overexcited at seeing some good news.

The CAA Statistics for February are now available

I see on FR24 that there’s an Air France A320 on the midday flight tomorrow. Is this to be a regular feature of the summer schedule?

It is scheduled for an A318 but this means it can be easily upgraded to an A319, A320 or A321 due to demand, aircraft availability issues or other reasons very easily given common crew rating on these aircraft types. Think Air France A318, A319 and A320 have already operated into Newcastle which just leaves the A321 to be seen.

Thanks. Good to see AF metal whatever he type.

Indeed it is , AF1058/9 will be operated by Air France mainline all summer on the A320 family aircraft.

[LiamNCL]

Seems like Thomas Cooks A321 has gone tech of some sort down in Hurghada , Condor 753 D-ABOI will bring people home tomorrow.

Where is the source of these new services to ABZ,OSL,BGO. Can't find anything to support the above info.

[Falcon900LX]

I can’t post the source as It contains other confidential info, you’ll just have to take my word for it and see if it happens.
Sorry.

Possibly explains current recruitment drive, Loganair poised to push Flybe out?

[Jamesair]

There was talk of Loganair wanting to base a second unit at NCL and route information on both LM and Lufthansa 6 x wkly to Munich originated from talk of slots applied for to operate these services.

[Jamesair]
