Scheduled timings suggest it is non-UK based airline.

[VentureGo]

Most likely to be operated by Antalya based Corendon Airlines.

Ryanair is to open a base up the road at NCL March 2022

A few Heathrow and Amsterdam flights cancelled recently…Covid? Or tech? Or poor loads?
Someone posted 15on a Heathrow two days ago…not good?

Struggle for all airports at mo.

Anyone know how the the holiday flight loads are?

[N707ZS]

Probably people on holiday reducing the loads.

[mmeteesside]

I was on the return from Belfast last night and there was 14 on that. Flew down to LHR from NCL Friday morning and there was about 70-80 on that (A320). Equally my LHR-DUB Friday night had probably ~100 on an A330.

[highwideandugly]

Thanks MME ..as suspected..long way until normality returns!

[GrahamK]

Sounds like LHR is improving if there was 15 on the flight. Regularly reading tweeets of less than 10pax.

[highwideandugly]

One rotation cancelled again today.

I still wonder who is covering the huge losses that must be happening?

[Atlantic Explorer]

I suspect it is the taxpayer, hidden under the Mayors vanity project.

Flying a handful of people into LHR is a sure way of losing a lot of money- fast.

News just coming through that Eastern are ending Aberdeen and Southampton, awful news!

[tigertanaka]

Now that Eastern are out of the way, watch the prices rise on the Aberdeen route. Currently you can fly MME-ABZ pretty much any day between September and December for £71 one way Sunday-Thursday and £78.70 on a Friday. Let's check again in a month's time.

Eastern/Air Kilroe have served Teesside-Aberdeen for well over 30 years (maybe longer) but 2 operators on that route was never going to last in the long term.

[Atlantic Explorer]

Is that the Eastern base closing then?

[N707ZS]

Eastern hasn't been based for a long time the route operated from Humberside.

[meleagertoo]

Was done at Gatwick what? 25 years ago? But the tanks on the bus' rooves made them unable to use any of the underpasses...

[SWBKCB]

From the article linked below - "It has been described as "awful news" on social media, with passengers voicing concerns about fare increases."

[SWBKCB]

Apologies if I'm getting confused, but did the Eastern Southamption service ever operate?

[The Nutts Mutts]

Briefly last year in between lockdowns, it was due to resume again on the 6th September. From memory last year the passenger loads were on par with Eastern's Leeds service, albeit both reduced because of COVID etc.

[SWBKCB]

Deary-me - I know that this isn't really the place for party politics, but the local MP's aren't exactly covering themselves in glory with their inaccurate/over-blown comments.
