Mr Ryan, you don't seem to get the point do you, I assume that you must go under a fake name on here as none of the staff at the airport seem to know your name, I was asking as I feel as though it would be nice to put a face to the name, not to worry anyways, I flew out again yesterday morning on the 1530, good load as per but people still seem to be very unpleasant about the airport, one gentleman even stated that he is moving his future flight to NCL as he isn't pleased with the service.

The J32's are just filling in I believe as Eastern have a lot on their plate in future, route cutting will come next I believe or maybe W patterns so I wouldn't be surprised to see developments with the MME route... however watch this space. I'm looking forward to using the E175's once we eventually get them!

Did he say what his complaint is?

TinTin, youre damn right i use a fake name, having seen more than one colleague get hauled over the coals over the years for their comments on this and other forums/sites

You need to be brave and use your real name ..like Teesside TinTin.His wife Terry TinTin doesn't hide her name,or the kids...Thomas TinTin and Tammy TinTin..not forgetting the dog Rusty TinTin!

Well if stopping pax from the 1530 from stalking you at work isn't a good reason for using a fake name, I don't know what would be!

Obviously I use my real name though.

Read into this what you will, but lots of chatter around the airport suggesting tomorrow is going to be a very good day...

Airport to close ???

mmeman 7th Aug 2017 07:32

Looks like Loganair 3 daily to Aberdeen and 1 daily to Norwich.

Loganair striking back at the Eastern/Flybe partnership?

Robert-Ryan 7th Aug 2017 07:51

Hmm, good news I guess even if it does raise more questions than it answers

highwideandugly 7th Aug 2017 08:12

Oh well it's news..so that's goodbye to the eastern base? Or will ,as probable just be a rebranding of The Jetstream route? Norwich...will be an interesting route..unless of course it's just confirmation of the Sunday only schedule?
We will see..

HH6702 7th Aug 2017 09:17

Is there the demand for both on ABZ route
This could end badly if T3 pull out and loganair can't make money on it

highwideandugly 7th Aug 2017 09:43

All speculation but gut feeling is they will take over the route and one of the rotations will include Norwich?
Hope the figures improve though as they are nothing short of disastrous over the last few months.
At least prices should be cheaper than Eastern!!

Probably a power game to create some leverage. If you play in our forecourt, we will play in your's - and let's see who has the deeper pockets.

mmeteesside 7th Aug 2017 11:07

Looks like 1 Saab 340 based from 16th October operating 3x/4x Aberdeen and 1x Norwich

Durham Tees Valley Airport: Introduction of new airline will provide a 'shot in the arm' - Gazette Live

Bit of a double-edged sword, LOG and Eastern/Flybe clearly intent on going head to head - can't see them both succeeding and MME might end up being collateral damage.

Being more positive, interesting comment from the Loganair managing director in the link above:


“We’re looking forward to beginning a long and successful working relationship with Durham Tees Valley Airport and intend to announce further service developments at DTVA in the coming months.”

WilliumMate 7th Aug 2017 14:47

Going back to the early 70s Air Anglia had a NWI-MME-ABZ service using F27s I believe. Plus ca change and all that.

HH6702 7th Aug 2017 15:13

4 flights per week not 3 DAILY !!

No-More-Bullschit 7th Aug 2017 15:59

Highwide...cheer up! It's good news, end of.

rog747 7th Aug 2017 16:25

any holiday charters still go from MME? saw Naples on the arrivals board for Sunday

Robert-Ryan 7th Aug 2017 16:31

Only ad-hoc by Newmarket and Omega.
