According to today's announcement, flight times are approx:
MME>LCY: 07:45-09:00
LCY>MME: 19:45-21:00
Not sure when the reverse flights will take place but these seem pretty good for a work day in London.
Surprised that Tony Burgess, the MD of Eastern, didn't seem to know that Dublin offered US pre-clearance.
It sounded very much like it to me.

Great news and a good kick start with a business orientated network. Still room for more if they prove popular I'm sure with each aircraft only doing three flights a day there's still going to be space in the schedule.

I don't think Eastern will be going anywhere near LCY on an ACMI after last time's fiasco.
The schedule bounces about before settling down with 2 x J41 and 1 x S20 based at MME when everything is running by the end of May.
Saab 2000 on 2 x LCY and 1 x DUB
J41 on 2 x SOU, 1 x ABZ
J41 on 2 x ABZ, 1 x CWL, 1 x BHD
There's no statement on when flights will go on sale or where. Mention of Flybe was very much absent from yesterday's announcement and I can't tell if Eastern is playing down the Flybe element or Flybe is distancing itself from Eastern. Or possibly both!!!

Albert have you got a link to where all that info is?
Just all articles yesterday pointed to 37 extra flights and adding of 185,000 seats which doesn't add up if you only base 1 S2000 and two J41.
Otherwise they are trying to include the Aberdeen in the added 185,000.

But a s2000 3 rotation a day 6 days a week gives around 93,000 extra seats so on that rough basis you'd need two S2000 based to add an extra 185,000.
Very rough calculation.
Which is why I asked for a link if possible.

I make it about 146,000 new seats per year - it's certainly not 180,000 unless you count in Aberdeen.
London City 10 weekly flights x 50 seats x 52 weeks = 52,000
Southampton 10 weekly flights x 29 seats x 52 weeks = 30,160
Dublin 6 weekly flights x 50 seats x 52 weeks = 31,200
Belfast 6 weekly flights x 29 seats x 52 weeks = 18,096
Cardiff 5 weekly flights x 29 seats x 52 weeks = 15,080
Adds up to 37 new weekly flights (as announced) but 146,536 seats before allowing for any reductions in holidays / quiet months.

As the saab 2000 only hold a maximum of 50 seats, surely if the flights to LCY or dublin work well due to the flight schedule times then surely they will have to up the aircraft size to
perhaps the 170 or 190, Who knows, time will tell.

Eastern might as well just move completely to Teesside plenty of office and hangar space for maintenance.
