Perhaps TCD are just getting an allocation of seatsvon MYT/TCX. Its not that an unreasonable suggestion.

Well when We got our booking confirmation it stated the XL 767 has been swopped for a My Travel A330 .......
|
From what I have seen from others the MAN SFB flights till February are to be an XL Airways 767 then replaced by a MYT 330 until the summer whne a leased XL Airways France 330 will take over for the summer. Presumably then XL Airways UK 330 will take over when they are delivered. :)
|
An XL France (formerly Star) A330-200 will operate the MAN-SFB programme from 1st May. XL's own A330s will be delivered in winter 2008.
For info all the 747s have gone as have the 757s, 767-200s (G-BOPB is currently flying Hajj but has effectively left the fleet) and 767-300 G-VKNH, leaving G-VKNG/I to operate the longhaul services. Cheers |

My head is spinning :ugh::ugh: |
NG op UK-SFB and NI op UK-Caribbean. Strong noises from AAI that their new 744 (TF-ANA) new to them from All Nippon is being wet leased to XLA
|
Having a more detailed look at the current plan shows that LGW/MAN-SFB flights will be a MYT A330 from 29Feb. It becomes a TCX callsign from 30Mar but I dare say it's the same aircraft. The above is to cover planned maint on the XL 763 fleet. From 1May LGW-SFB reverts to XL 763 and MAN-SFB will be XL France A330.
Interesting to read about the AAI 744. I understand Florida bookings are really strong at the moment due to the weak dollar so I wouldn't be surprised to see extra capacity being sought. We'll see in time no doubt. Cheers |
XL/ Stansted.
I might have missed any possible comment on this, if so, how sad, never mind. Anybody know if XL are doing the Corfu charter flights from Stansted in 2008? Please!
|
Last I heard XL pulled any STN ops at end of summer 07.

Oh dear! How sad, many thanks D-ABAA

I think you will find XL are doing CFU for summer 2008... DONTTELLTHE PAX.
======================================================= That's encouraging! I am planning to go early June, in fact I AM going at that time, around June 9th. From Stansted. As a matter of interest, surely, the sky's of London are crowded! Why is the unused Alconbury ignored for expansion instead of HTR? It has a lengthy runway, plenty of land but, the flight path would encroach on John Major's peace of mind I suppose! |
How come the STN flights aren't on XL's flight timetable?

How come the STN flights aren't on XL's flight timetable? =========================================== That's what prompted my enquiry! :confused: |
Are they charters on behalf of another tour operator rather than one from the XL stable?
|
Buster.....They could be, however I travel flight only and deal with XL exclusively so I can't be sure.
In edit.....There's no indication of a third party on the bumf. Just looked at last years. |
XL flights Summer 2008
The STN website has highlighted all XL flights with the Union Flag, as it is the only UK owned charter airline flying from STN.
|
Last year Airtours took seats on some XL STN flights
|
