... and of course Carpatair, who commence ops in mid-December.

Carpatair
 

Is not much different to tarom 2 flights a week with a 737-300 at horrible hours with 148 passengers on board. With these route is has competion at stansted with air Moldova

Late hours
 

The Romanian flights late hours are annoying, as they make it harder to get a viewing of these new aircraft at luton, unless you fancy driving round the airport at 10-11 pm:ugh:

BOEING 737, do you have any idea how many more el al services will be running over Christmas?:confused:

BOEING 737-8
 

Do u think the CARPATAIR flights will be regularly full?

787luton
 

I don't really know but the 1st flight is full and being first it should be. I think it could have more flights per week if they increase they planes at carpatair

BOEING 737-8
 

Your probably right, probably going to be one of these 1st couple of flights full and then the amount of passengers will decrease, although it may continue to b -e full if the route proves popular- which it probably will:rolleyes:

The poorer the country the more of its citizens will come and live here.

If carpatair make profit they could add more flight to different destinations in Romania which wizz do not do but can't think of many as wizz do most

LTNMAN
 

I agree, just a shame quite a few of them are in Europe!:ugh:

Ltnman
 

I agree with you as wizz flights sell out coming here go out half empty

BOEING 737-8
 

Haha, soon we will have flights with 2 or 3 people on from the equivalents of breach wood green in Romania!:rolleyes:

Flight capacity
 

Do we know what the maximum amount of passengers could be both ways?
BOEING 737 mentioned 148 but is that the same for TAROM ?

El al
 

Nice to see a 767-300 in tonight instead of the boring little 737 must be demand still with easyjet flights

BOEING 737-8
 

I agree with you BOEING, nice to see something a little different once in a while!

Where did u see it from, I got quite a good view from wigmore park, shame it was a little blocked by the new framework!:ugh:

new hangar
 

Does anybody know when the new hangar will be complete- or if there will be anymore extensions :rolleyes:

Can't see it being finished this side of Christmas. Most of the framework is up and part of one side but that is it.

Framework
 

I agree about christmas seeing as there's probably going to be snow etc Which will slow the construction down even more!

Is there an adult thread for Luton that we can read, please? The juvenile and unpleasantly exenophobic tone here has very little to do with the development of the airport.

Well said Jes, Kind of amusing the "anti foreigner" sentiment to be honest considering there would be no flights at all and no airports for these chaps to be interested in without those pesky foreigners arriving and departing for the last 70 odd years.

Its getting kind of ridiculous to read here, Also the knowledge levels must be quite low. Poland is not a "poor" country, Romania has lots of amazing tourist areas to visit. Hungary has Budapest one of the most popular cities in the world. The list could go on and on with all the Eastern European/Balkan destinations that are served.

Time to grow up and start living in the modern era folks.

So is there any news about the airport or is it all about how 2 guys on here dont like Romanians and how a bigger plane looks nicer then a 737? :ugh:

Two guys... Don't you mean one ? :oh:
