Hearing from the EasyJet thread EDI will have 9x based from next summer, this will be to help run the BHX route when it goes on sale, nothing confirmed yet though.

It's one of many suggested options. I suggested they cut existing routes and frequencies to make way. Both equally as likely. Perhaps its no surprise you chose to take the positive one to start yet another rumour with.

You “suggested” they cut existing routes? Are they looking at this forum to make that decision? It may be that routes are cut but why would we want that to happen? The other option (9th aircraft) seems more likely from that thread so hopefully that’ll happen.

I'm just making a point that Plane Mad has a habit of starting rumours which are completely baseless, they are just what he/ she wishes to happen.

That's all.

Thats fair enough but I don’t think the poster you mention started this “rumour”. Another poster (perhaps more reputable?) seemed to imply that they know a 9th aircraft will be added. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Looking at current rough planned aircraft utilisation for Monday mornings S20, they might well be on to something:

1) BFS 0700-0915 TXL 0945-1440
2) STN 0610-0925 AMS 1005-1340
3) LGW 0600-0945 BRS 1015-1315
4) BHX XXXX-XXXX VRN 1020-1615
5) LTN 0700-1015 GVA 1045-1545
6) CPH 0710-1125 MAD 1200-1830
7) PRG 0600-1115 STR 1220-1715
8) KRK 0640-1240 CDG 1325-1735
9) SVQ 0600-1300 HAM 1355-1800

Could be all subject to change. I'm sure all will be revealed soon enough...

To be fair, Plane mad 123 actually mentioned where he had seen the information, therefore it was never a "baseless rumour".
He did mention that the information was from the easyJet thread where I had posted the information earlier in the evening.
This is the information plane mad 123 was alluding to and I've re-posted it here:

easyJets EDI base will increase to 9x aircraft next summer; 4x A319s, and 5x A320s - an increase of 1x A319.
Looking at a Monday next summer, the EDI-based aircraft show as operating the same flights they operated this summer, although some flights move from an A319 to A320 and vice versa.
A new flight to VRN has been added during the middle of the day on the new based A319, and a morning LGW and evening GVA move from a A320 to the new A319. This leaves BHX sized gaps morning and evening on an EDI based A320.
Similar happens throughout the week, so unless easyJet dramatically change the schedule for EDI and other bases, it looks as if EDI gains an extra aircraft next summer.


easyJets GLA base increases to 5x aircraft next summer, 3x A319s, and 2x A320s - an increase of 1x A319 also.
The BHX flights take the morning and evening slots on the new based A319 leaving a large slot in the middle of the day on some days which has not yet been filled.

Regarding EasyJet yes it was severns post I seen and he is more knowledgeable than me and has been on this forum for years, I have been here a year as well and gave a source to the information so not baseless, I hope it does materialise though.

Does anyone know why there is a Titan Airways B767 inbound from Colombus USA reg G-POWD?

Edit: Luthansa will increase the EDI-MUC service from 3x weekly to daily.

Will that still run alongside the Eurowings service or is that being withdrawn?

It will run alongside it with Eurowings at 5x weekly.

Some EW flights for summer 2020 are zero'd out apart from highest fares suggesting some changes may come.

[SWBKCB]

Looks like LH are going for it in the UK regions - increasing MUC in EDI, introducing MUC to NCL, increasing FRA at GLA, re-introducing FRA at BRS.

[inOban]

Given that there's a daily EZY flight as well, I would be surprised if the Eurowings flights operate.

Thanks, interesting flight then.

[Flightrider]

EW will not be operating MUC alongside LH. They'll be flying CGN and DUS from EDI only, with LH on FRA and MUC.

GLA will gain another A320 in March, 3 x A320 & 2 x A319

Great news although might I suggest you post this in the GLA thread?

[inOban]

To be fair, a previous post on this thread had said that both EDI and GLA were gaining a 319.

What I think is significant is that both have a continuing need for the smaller a/c, at a time when the LCCs are generally upsizing. There seem to be a number of routes which need a smaller a/c at a reasonable frequency, rather than a large one just a couple of times a week.
