TACV, the main airline of the Cape Verde Islands

Well it was 5, it's now 10. Watch this space - you heard it here first

American Airlines
 

I hear that AA are more than happy with bookings and are looking at two more destinations from STN late 2008 :ok:

Anyone know anymore on this ? I guess one of the routes must be Chicago and poss Dallas, I have also noticed that STN is not yet on the AA route map, It shows London then offers LHR and LGW.

Glad to hear AA think the route is doing well. Where did you read this? I read on the AA website that they said they were pleased with the response and that a lot of bookings were leaving LHR, returning STN and vice versa. My family are booked to fly the route in March along with 9 of our friends. I have been promoting the route rather well so far!!! LOL.

MAD is another conspicuous omission ex-STN. Any rumours? (Come on, Ryanair...!)

Eos to start flights from Newark to Stansted
 

October 18, 2007 — In celebration of its second anniversary today, Eos Airlines, whose “Uncrowded” travel experience has captured the loyalty of premium trans-Atlantic travelers, announced it will begin flights between New York’s JFK and Paris, and Newark and London Stansted Airports in 2008. With a recent infusion of $50 million in investment capital, Eos also announced it will secure its seventh and eighth Boeing 757 aircraft in order to introduce as many as four new routes in 2008.

Well, I've just transited through Stansted twice in the past week and the whole process was painless and professional. No delays, decent check in staff, efficient security.

From arrival at gate from LEI to getting into bed at a hotel about 10 miles away was about an hour. It was a first experience of Stansted and it was enjoyable compared to a lot of other places.

Cheers.

Aviance given Eastern Airways contract for the STN - MAN route starting 29 OCT. :rolleyes:

New route Stansted - Eilat
 

Any truth in the rumour that a great big piece of internal pannelling on a jetway fell down last Friday 19 Oct ,just as the pax were about to start boarding the Jet 2 LS2001 to Lourdes ?
How long will it take till somebody gets killed on these dreadfull ,dangerous,
dirty,deadly.degenerate jetways ?
Dont blame the low cost carriers.

TOM are also doing a Sunday flight from 04/11 as TOM8231

Any idea when BAA will put the Summer charters onto the website:confused:

Summer 2008
 

Summer schedule 2008 should be posted next week

Thats good news, are we to expect anything other than the "norm"
would like to see some longhaul charters, over the pond would be nice,
well maybe when summer 2009 comes about :zzz:

Thomson are adding a range of "fly cruise" and "cruise and stay" holidays from Stansted to La Romana on the Dominican Republic using Thomsonfly for Winter 2008/9. A strange move to use Thomsonfly when you consider they are pulling the plug on their Stansted base.

Not that strange when First Choice will have a STN base and I take it the two airlines will be merged by then?

AA
 

Anyone know what the loads are like for the First AA from/to JFK
tomorrow ?

There is a press release on the BAA website regarding the new AA STN - JFK flight. The inbound AA124 landed 10 minutes early this morning so off to a good start. I will be flying this route in March, it just seems such a long way away.

TACV to Sal (SID)
 

How did the inaugural go? On time? Loads?
