Stansted-4

LGW is the same I believe. Both are hamstrung by the need for EK to use their LHR slots I suspect. That said, their total operation from the regions will be a shadow of the 2019 operation and will undoubtedly be subject to further reductions and delays.

[JW95]

Correct. For the majority of next year until at least W21, all EK London flying has been consolidated to LHR, leaving LGW and STN without service to DXB until November

Terminal Closure

The terminal will once again close from 17:00-05:00 from the 6th January. The passenger flight schedule will fall within these hours once again. No date on when the terminal is expected to reopen 24 hours. But I doubt this will happen until early February at the very earliest.

And further info perhaps before the inevitable as previously...

GA & Cargo facilities remain 24hrs.

CAT 7 RFF 24hrs with CAT10 RFF on request.

Yet RYR are selling flights with shedules between the NOTAM date/times terminal closures.

[davidjohnson6]

No idea if it will really happen, but SAS are selling their 2x (Mon + Sat) weekly winter seasonal Stansted-Lulea route effective 17-Dec-2021. The route was originally announced in March 2020 for commencement in December 2020

The original CPH flight is now also open for reservation. Commences 31 Oct 2021. Nothing to ARN unfortunately.

SkyUp Airlines 3 weekly KBP/Kiev-STN for 2021.

[Harrych]

I thought it wasn’t confirmed which airport they would fly to, it’s not currently loaded on their website.

Terminal Closure Update.

Despite social media post from today. MAG have decided to push back the terminal closure to the 11th January.

A good move with Ryanair taken KBP of sale from March.

West Atlantic Operation & further to Post #23...

A Swiftair AT72 operated MAN-STN this evening with a NPT/West Atlantic trip number.The AT72 had previously positioned into MAN from Spain.

[STN406]

Interesting, West Atlantic must have taken the contract for this flight from ASL which has operated this feeder flight from Manchester for years.

[southside bobby]

Indeed...same route,same a/c,same numbers being flown this evening with very similar timings.

[southside bobby]

UK Ltd appearing to influence some segments of corporate flying too...

Witness a recently re registered CS- to G- corporate jet of NetJets Europe with corresponding flight prefix change from NJE to NJU flying STN-ABR today.

[pabely]

Might influence some Premier League footie team charters soon, might put more work Jota's way.

[SWBKCB]

Can you explain what you mean?

[pabely]

If the CAA are putting pressure on operators to run domestic routes on G- aircraft then demand will rise for domestic operators, why else would NetJets bother to setup a G- and the extra cost that would bring?

[SWBKCB]

It's not a case of putting pressue on, it's a licencing requirement. Can't see the impact on Premier League team charters, though as they are virtually all UK anyway - Jota, Eastern, Loganair, etc?

Seems a bit irrelevant, as STN-ABR is a transatlantic route.
