Controversial point on this forum, but it felt like some of the departures yesterday were bordering on the ridiculous. Ie those flights that ended up trying to get to Dublin with very similar conditions and ending up in the continent. They should’ve been cancelled. Hindsight wonderful thing of course.
There was a difference Manchester was very lucky in that the winds were right down the runway with very little turbulence and only gusting in mid 30 knts most for the time where as Dub still has a runway with very similar heading it seemed very turbuent

G-EIDY went in for its C check. Once complete, G-EILA will replace it in BOD. EI-DUZ will therefore cover on a dry lease for a month.

May be a slight change of subject, but was just wondering if anyone has read the 2016 land use plan for manchester airport? Only asking as I've seen stats like movement per hour and how they are going to make the most our of the two runways with the construction of extra taxiways including one which could run parrell to 23l-05r. I understand its an old report and probably has changed so was wondering if anyone had any info they could add to this. Also mentions 55 mppa but when looking at capacity now says t2 will only be 25 million. Just seems to be a few confusing figures out at the moment.
Cheers anyway, Ben

MAN-AMM flights
A bit more info on the new 3 weekly Manchester-Amman route launched by Royal Jordanian from March. I must admit I'm surprised there was no announcement in local media e.g. the MEN. It feels like unless there is bad news about the airport it doesn't get published. I still think MAN could have shouted out about this a bit more however. Surely another ME carrier launching routes out of MAN is good news is it not?
Good to see a new carrier to another interesting destination.

Indeed I agree about peepoor PR. As soon as a service or route increase is announced it should be max' exposure at both airports!
Why do they always wait until the day a service starts and why is the emphasis seemingly focused on the MEN ?
Have they not heard of advance bookings ?
Why do they always focus on the Manchester outbound leg.
Why not promote Manchester in Arabic in Amman and Jordan etc ?

IIRC Royal Jordanian did have adverts on trams, whether they’re still there I have no clue .
They have also applied for 787 ops beginning April 1, according to SPD-Travels on X.

Seems an odd time to launch flights to Jordan.
