Bristol -2pw
Liverpool -3pw
Manchester - increasing from 4pw to 6pw.
Very positive for the airport, extra 7 flights a week, didn't expect. There was a gaping hole in the UK market.

Great announcement and a long time coming as gaps were obvious - Only downside is flight times and days on Liverpool service are shocking - doesent suit the significant football or weekend break traffic with 22:35 departure on a Saturday night - likewise Bristol days of operation very poor and offer nothing for weekend market really

Deal was for 5 years so not really, means little anyway as most routes from the original deal have actually been scrapped. This recent one is completely independent of that deal.
Will it be built on for the winter? Probably not, other than the new services will remain.

Surely if a load of cash was offered they would have tried to secure better days of operation - hard to see these days been top performers they don’t even facilitate a weekend break - hope they added to winter schedule as don’t see them there as yet and most of rest schedule loaded

Would be great to see it extended next year. One of them routes which could go either way! The fact that Air Transat maintained a rather useless service for so many years possibly shows there is a market though.

Largely as a result of a shift in completition. United gone from Newark, making the route much more viable.
Shannon's Norwegian routes may be under threat for the winter. Corks Providence is already cut for the winter, and may not be returning again.

I had forgotten EI were just swapping JAN-MAR capacity to JFK from BOS. Was thinking that if PVD went, that would be the first time SNN had zero flights to the States since it opened!

Irish Examiner reporting this morning that both Shannon and Edinburgh to Providence will be suspended for the Winter along with the Cork to Providence route. No word of cutbacks on Stewart from any airport.

"Despite the cancellation of the routes to Providence, Norwegian is to expand its Shannon to New York service to four flights per week for the same period."

Norwegian expansion
Norwegian in W18/19 are expanding service to Newburgh by increasing the frequency from 3 to 7 weekly.
