Their web site does say 27th November but no details of Parkway exit.
It looks great value if flying from Stansted, only £2 bus fare or a £5 taxi fare to Heathrow. I suspect that the Luton airport passengers won't get a look-in! :}. |
COMMITTEE:
DEVELOPMENT CONTROL DATE: 20TH OCTOBER 2010 The proposal is for the erection of a seven storey building comprising a 188 bedroom hotel and 1,897 sq metres of B1 office space together with 231 parking spaces. There will be a temporary pedestrian link from Luton Airport Parkway Railway Station across the site to Kimpton Road, which will remain in place until such time as the adjoining Stirling Place development, which provides a pedestrian link to Parkway Rail Station, is completed. The Stirling Place development includes a new pedestrian/access link to Parkway Rail Station and the layout is designed to facilitate the provision of a bus link to the rail station boundary. As such given the sustainability of the location it is considered that the proposed parking provision is acceptable. http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/5...arkwaynewe.jpg |
I noticed while I was standing on platform 1 yesterday morning that there is a footpath from the hotel leading to door straight on to platform 1. Don't know what you do about tickets as the ticket office is the other side of the 4 tracks!

Think there is a ticket machine in the small building that contains the entry and exit barriers

October provisional stats
Movements Oct 6491 (+ 0.4% YOY)
Movements Rolling yr 71880 (- 0.6%) Passengers Oct 862009 (- 0.3%) Passengers Rolling yr 9597003 (+1.6%) Not such a good month - any ideas why? |
Take away the Eastern Europeans who use Luton and those figures would be close to halved.
With over 860,000 passengers using Luton in October I would not call those figures bad as the airport is still operating close to capacity. |
Don´t forget half-term school holidays were split this year running into November as we noticed here in Southern Spain but now unbelievably quiet - OK for us residents but not for business I´m afraid. It will be interesting so see if the November passenger figures show any increase.

Gatwick London City Luton Aberdeen +15% +2% - 20% Belfast International +5% N/A +5% Edinburgh +5% +0.01 +1% Glasgow +12% +10% -0.01 Isle of Man +14% +13% - 32% Jersey - 7% +17% +7% why has Gatwick and London City performed (overall) better than Luton in relation to domestic flights for October? In addition Luton was once a main link to Ireland, but we seem to have lost almost all connections. Why? |
My apologies for the previous entry, I thought I could copy and paste a small spread sheet.
|
In answer to your last question, a lot of the flights to Ireland were moved by a certain Irish "gentleman" to Stansted.
Luton still has flights to Dublin, Knock and Kerry plus Waterford until 6th January. OLY1B |
TOM012 LTN - SFB recently departed. Whats that one doing ? (Don't say its going to Orlando)
Sorry its vaguely a spotter question but I was just curious. |
I don't really know but my best guess is a connecting cruise charter flight.

Especially to the likes of the Greek Islands and also Wizzair end their seasonal flights to Dubrovnik and Split at the start of September. |
Was speaking to a couple of old Menzies acquaintances the other day, and they tell of whispers from a certain Asian airline that used to operate the other side of the M11...
|
Wingspan and length of the A333 too big for LTN isn't it? Their A332s don't arrive for another 2 years.
That's Air Asia X, I assume you're alluding too. |
Hmm not entirely sure, what version of the 330 do MNG operate?
And yes you'd have it spot on :E |
MNG operate the A332
|
Tom SFB
It was a positioning flight to operate the tom013 SFB-lgw, the aircraft has just come out of maintenance and was due to operate lgw-SFB with no pax as last flight of the season on this route
|
MM Thanks for your help
|
Aren't the A333 & B777 very similar and El-Al have no issues operating shedules into LTN?
