Anybody have any idea of Thomson's schedule for Summer 2014 please for SFB/CUN? Read they were putting 767/787 on the route but any clue which flights each will do?

As I understand it the 767 was to operate until the first 787 was delivered, which it now has.

How this has changed since the tech issues the other week I dont know

New Jet2.com route for 2014
 

New route to Paris-CDG, 4x weekly from April 2014.

There is now up to 11 daily departures in summer 2014.

I wonder how this will effect Flybe? My guess is probably not too much as I can't see the new Jet2 service being as attractive to business travel.

I see the CDG flights fit in before PRG fights, I wonder why their was around a 3 hr gap in the flight sch.also see today we have a extra FHY flight must be for the high season services to give extra I.T. cover.regardsStuart

freebird and onur air
 

yes Stuart it is operating for Thomas Cook for the holiday period also the onur air service on a Wednesday is operating for the monarch group

Tom b787
 

Am I right that tomorrow is the first pax flight from EMA by tom b787 at 11.40am to SFB, and on Wed to CUN plus each week tue/wed to end of Oct.regardsStuart

Best get the fire brigade geared up then for its arrival.

Tom 787
 

Correct Stuart should position in from Glasgow around 09:00

It's good to see the 787 operating from EMA but it's not as impressive as the DC3 parked by the old BMA T2 hanger. We will see a good few 787's operating from EMA in the future, but, I fear, there will not be many more chances to see DC3's here.

TCAS ALERT.

Re EMA and Summer 2014.. TOM Brochure shows it reverts to a 767 from start to mid summer 2014. Then whole long haul programme is a 787 as it is from every long haul base in the UK including BHX.

Bad news for Bristol, as its completely dropped from their long haul programme and EDI gets a one off 787 flight.

You couldn't be more right in my opinion. But I wouldn't mind betting that when the 787 is in it's declining years, there'll still be a DC3 flying somewhere!

The TOM axing of BRS long haul for summer 2014 was announced earlier this year.

TOM update 2014
 

With the update on 25 July from the Thomson flights 2014 at EMA , EMA-NAP now operates FRI and MON which will be a new flight on MON, to make use of a Thomson aircraft on the NAP flight the CFU on MON now shows TBA, may be a W flight from a other airport.Other change is DLM flights the SUN flight to DLM now goes to Bodrum with a Thomson aircraft so no need for a FHY aircraft, this may be due to JET2 making DLM for 2014 from 2 flights to 4 flights.Their are many changes at BHX but I will let Olton Pete do the changes.regardsStuart

From Airline Route - Worldwide Airline Route Updates:

So what will the aircraft be doing then? Sitting idle on the ground in-between the Brussels flights? bmi have tried CGN before to keep the aircraft busy during noon-time, but without success as well.

FLYBE Winter 2013/4
 

Flybe

Amsterdam increases to double daily in the week for winter and Paris is reduced to daily.

Both GDS and the flybe site shows the 175 on the CDG in February which at present would be difficult as the AMS and JER are still DH8D's.

BHD still showing as 4 x DH8D no doubt due to BHD losing a couple of 195's.

Ethiopian Cargo route
 

"Ethiopian Airlines (ET) freight division, Ethiopian Airlines Cargo, will launch a once weekly dedicated cargo flight between Addis Ababa and East Midlands Airport, an airport in the East Midlands of England, effective September 1. Flights operate on board a B757-200F."

Quote from:

? The African Aviation Tribune ?: ? UNITED KINGDOM: Ethiopian Cargo to start weekly ops to East Midlands Airport.

No aircraft turned up on the 1st, anyone know if this is correct heard it off a few people now, cheers

Tom -

Apparently the aircraft is to be operated with Ethiopian Cargo 757F departing Sunday mornings 07:45
