MURCIA - SAN JAVIER, SPAIN
 

Hello to all,
Just a quick question? Does anybody know if airlines like Easyjet or Flybe are to add new routes into MJV? In the last month only Jet2, that seems to become the owner of the airport, is launching more and more routes.

thank you

Thank you Glagaz.

I work at MJV airport as flight dispatcher, and had heard of the frequency increase, but amazingly the route is starting in less than a month and non of the handling agents (Iberia, Select Aviation, Servisair) has received a proposal to handle GSM flights. Any idea, who could be the winner when they request...

Monarch commence BHX - MJV twice a week in April (Mon & Fri) with a
321. It then goes 4 a week in May (Wednesday & Sunday added) and
it then drops to 3 a week for Winter 2006/7.

Although new to Monarch, for BHX it is no more than replacing the My Travellite service which ended in October 2005.

Also Flybe have reduced their summer service from BHX to MJV. This will
remain 3 per week as it is now (I think it was 5 per week last summer).

However there will be 3 flights a week from Norwich by Flybe 733.

It starts at the end of March at 2 a week and the third is added
on 22/4/06.

For those still awake, BHX averaged 115 per flight in January (per CAA stats) on the Flybe 733.

Nice to see Norwich getting new flights but a shame it had
to be at the expense of one of the two BHX based Flybe 733's.

Also

I will be moving down to VillaMartin in the next few months and wanting to work at the airport. who is the best people to contact with regards to employment? I speak very basic Spanish.

Hello UPS,

There are quite a few job opportunities at MJV by the moment, and for some of the you dont need to speak fluent spanish honestly.
Jet2 has started autohandling quite recently, and up to now it was Servisair its passenger handling agent (check-in, boarding, ticket desk..) but, from 11th March they have their own check-in and ticket desk staff. The selection process finished a couple of weeks ago, but there may be still some vacancies.
FR also does autohandling and they are always searching for ramp agents, or check-in, ticket desk staff.
IB is another story, as you must log-in into IB web site, fill out a formular and a couple of times a year the call applicantes and carry out the selection progress.

Hope this info may be usefull for you


Cheers

It's Saturdays only from 01APR, then daily from 01MAY.

If talks between Humberside and Jet2 are successful, flights between there and Murcia are likely.

Mike

Any news about Flybe starting any new routes into MJV. Honestly it is the airline I like the most, and was a bit disappointed to see they have reduced the BHX from 5 to 3 a week, when actually last year average load was over 140 every single day, and it has been the only route out of BHX to Spain that has not have any cancellations throughout the summer (ALC flight cancelled on wednesdays and AGP on Tuesdays and Thursdays).
I would like to see BHD or MAN routes into MJV.

Regards,

Sorry I meant cancellations during the winter not summer.

The reduction of the BHX services to MJV, AGP, ALC, FAO and the loss of
LEI & PMI was a shock but one of the 733's is about to be based at
Norwich and I assume that Flybe might be eligible for subsidies on these routes . As I have said before, great for Norwich but a bit harsh on BHX unless yields were poor.

Without working for the airline it is difficult to know how the yields were
during summer 2005 but I monitored their site virtually every day looking
for the family holiday and there were no bargains between July and mid September except for a few seats on the day the flights were released.

This was the same for BMIBaby but they have maintained a similar
schedule in 2006. I booked Palma with MyTravellite in 2005 and look what
happened to them :eek:

Responding to your post Olon,

Loads on the BHXMJV route were always over 140 pax during summer 2005 and over 100pax during the winter, when ALC saw the WED flight cancelled and AGP had Tuesdays and Thursday.
MJV route had always had higher loads as not so many operators offer flights to BHX in comparison to ALC. I can not understand why BE has kept its 5 flights a week to ALC (ZB and BMI offer daily flights) and has reduced the MJV frequency from 5 to 3 when VZ has wipped out ( it used to have daily frequencie), as well as WW (once a week), and only ZB has added 4 flights a week. I do believe that this coming summer witn 7 flights a week BE should have had even higher loads, than last summer when there were 13 per week.
Anyway, I hope they notice, as BE flight to MJV have more than 100 bookings (even 4 months in advance) and 2007 gets 5 or more flights a week

Jet2 operate MAN route year round. and start BFS very soon.

As for these jobs, well Jet2 started their own handling last Sunday, but you need to be fluent in Spanish and English.

Have a good summer,

See you in MJV over Easter if I can get staff seats.

Dear Johnny,

Thanks for the info, even I already knew Jet2 operates MAN and will operate BHF from April this year.
With regards to these two destinations, I pointed out, I would like to see them also operated by Flybe.

Thank you

JET2
 

Don't forget the North West's favourite airport

Murcia-Blackpool from April

and the Jet2 747 going Blackpool-Palma. That's the callsign not the aircraft.

With your spin marketing of the airport Silverhawk and the number of classic 747's in the desert, it's surely only a matter of time that PM is persuaded :}

And the BLK-PMI is the 748. Is that Boeing's proposed big one or the forerunner to the ATP?

hello
Any news on this matter?

New routes/destinations-new airlines to MJV?
 

Hello,
Does anybody know if there are any other airlines (apart from the ones already operating) interested in flying to MJV?
And among the ones flying, do you know if they plan new destinations?
Expansion works are going on schedule and new terminal building will be finished by october. That means much more capacity (5 gates, 20 counters..)
Thank you
