air berlin on the move?
 

the grapevine say's that air berlin are moving to sat 2 at the end of the month.Can any one confirm and if so......why???:confused:

its probably as they have a few domestic flights an easier to keep aircraft in same place than moving them around.

Sat 2
 

Also probably BAA want more punters going through Sat 2 too keep the shiny new Wetherspoons and the other concessions busy. Especially now that there are fewer FR international turnarounds during the daytime operating from Sat 2.

And as Carbootking commented Air Berlin ops are spread over Sat 1 and 2 currently as the Domestic Ops have to depart from Sat 2 and this is causing a large amount of Bussing of punters.

I wonder who will take up the slack on sat 1,new carriers?,and have you noticed AGS are getting busier?:D

Iceland Express
 

Iceland Express will start flying from Stansted to Akureyri, in the North of Iceland from 28th September 06. The route will be flown on Thursday's and Sunday's .

What was the story with the KLM 737 emergency in STN last night (11th)?
Presumably a fire warning or something judging by the fire trucks involved...

Anyone know any more?

Have since heard it was a fuel leak...

MAN-AMS divert due fuel warning.



- Can anyone confirm that PIA commence twice weekly flights in July from STN? Not sure where to? 777 apparently.

FJE
 

Any info on FJE 557 From Bermuda to STN tomorrow 06.40.

PIA
 

Hasta

Understand PIA start 2 x weekly (Tue/Sun) on 25th July with A310 to/from Pakistan. Afternoon schedule.

im flying with airberlin from Stansted next week and wonder what terminal do they use?

cheers

the one and only....................

sorry i mean is the train needed to get to the gate

I think PIA are going to be either, 742/3 or 772

PIA STN???
 

Is this PIA thing just a rumour or for real??? Only I can't see a thing on their website or the Stansted one either. And anyone any idea's where the flights are from/to in Pakistan? :O

PIA STN ?
 

I dont know where you get all this info from I cant find it anywhere
nothing on the web or in local press and you say 25th july i cant
see it myself would be nice though :hmm:

gonna be 310 and/or 777

I know this has been asked before but where is all this information coming from? What website? And where does it say its going to be a A310 or 777?

The commencement date hasn't been finalised.PIA will start of with the A310s three weekly flights.
Tue KHI in and going out to ISB
Thu ISB in and going out to KHI
Sat KHI in and KHI out
Just remember things can change.

PIA to Stanstead? First time I'm hearing of this. I'm sure they would have advertised about it in the local media. Would there be any traffic for this route to justify operating there?

Remember STN is a low cost airport, and as STN have a need for more long haul airlines, they would indeed offer a very good deal to PIA.

There's a very large Pakistani/Asian community in the East end of London which will no doubt make this service a total success. Still no idea where anyone gets their info from on these flights as no announcement on the STN website and I can't see them on PIA's site either.

It is confirmed that PIA flights operate twice weekly from STN commencing 25/7/06 - handled by Servisair on A310; business and economy config. Operating out at approx 1600. I don't know why PIA or STN are not announcing this through their web sites. . . . .

so how do you know all this
 

where do you get your info from
with the start date so soon how will people book
if they are not advertising the route ?

PIA?
 

It seems strange to announce a route (which hasn't even been announced yet) and then start it a week later. Especially a long haul route. What website is all the information from? I know I have asked it before but am just confused.

Jersey Service
 

Rumour that the Stansted to Jersey could be up graded to an ATR72 in the not to distant future.

Could this be due to the connections that Stansted offers.

If this is correct the route is showing good signs??

Going back to when Air UK operated the route in the summer there would be three return ATR72 flight a day.

Good on Atlantic Express for reviving the line between Stansted and Jersey>

where do you get your info from
 

People who work for the companies involved?!

13L can now apparently take an A380!

would YOU trust those air bridges?lol

Yep PIA are going to be operating a twice weekly service from STN, starting on the 25th July. Definatly with an A310.
Only know this as there is a rumour Manchester will be doing the weight and balance. :{ Like we don't have enough of them to do already!

with all due respect-manchester have yet to get a single load plan right.stand by for some serious pulling out of hair!!!

Who are you refering to in this?? There are lots of handling agents in Manchester bit harsh to assume we are all the same. PIA are NOT looked after by servisair at MAN if you are refering to their CLC.

Croatia
 

SkyEurope are now offering flights from Stansted to three Croatian destinations:

Split
Zadar
Dubrovnik

VIA BRATISLAVA!

Also seems they may be introducing Stansted to Budapest... (direct)

Why would anyone fly with Sky Europe from STN when Wizz offer similar routes direct from Luton at reasonable frequencies?
And EZY operate to Rijeka from LTN.

dont be silly
 

try this for a reason
because some of us live closer to stansted than luton
stansted also has better transport links :ugh:

Proposed Routes
 

Stansted says Flyglobespan have announced several of the proposed winter routes from STN. Only two are at present listed, are there more to come?

Stansted has better transport links.........than......? Not Luton I would suggest!

8-10 trains per hour to London, the quickest taking 22 minutes. M1 adjacent with links to London, the midlands and beyond.

Toronto is confirmed on the flyGlobespan website operated by Zoom

PIA now expected to commence services from Saturday, rather than Tuesday . . . . .

Postponed again Tuesday week now!
