Any idea what made up the 600 difference between movements, light aircraft, military?

some of it would be down to the total absence of mail flights this year.

The easyjet Neo should be making its way up here soon on some of the EZY rotations.

"easyJet will continue to showcase the Neo aircraft. Having already exhibited the aircraft in Amsterdam, the airline will also visit London Gatwick, Glasgow, Belfast, Newcastle, Bristol, Manchester and Liverpool"

So a few changes for KLM/AF next summer.

AMS reduces to 4 flights a day,, 3 x 737 1 x EMB190. CDG remains 3 x daily with 2 flights operated by Hop and the late afternoon service by Cityjet again on the RJ85

That will be two important routes with reduced frequencies in 2018....Amsterdam and Dublin, plus Southampton which reduces from 4 to 3 daily in 2018

Just shows that there is too many seats compared to the demand needed

These new routes just poped up on the Tui thread.

Newcastle – Dubrovnik eff 03MAY18 1 weekly 737-800
Newcastle – Thessaloniki 03MAY18 – 11OCT18 1 weekly 737-800

I disagree, during summer months those KLM flights especially are very often full. As are the Aer Lingus flights, the 8am flight was always full of connecting passengers onto transatlantic departures. The airport seems to be hemorrhaging scheduled flights at the minute with the loss of SAS, the EI reduction and now KLM reducing frequency. The only carrier that seems to be going from strength to strength is Ryanair.

Another thread mentions that the KLM reductions, which also affect MME reducing from 3 to 2 daily are down to slot issues at Schipol Airport

CPH has come and gone over the years, similiarly there has been seasonal (?) capacity fluctuations on DUB and AMS.

So it is due to demand and profits. More profits can be made on other routes than to NCL

Can anybody explain why BA have 2 lunchtime flights to Heathrow, one leaves 1205 and the other at 1215. It seems 2 aircraft overnight at the moment, one leaves on the first flight out with the other operating one of the lunchtime flights.

What is the need for this? Is it simply slot holding at LHR? I can’t imagine both flights being full within 10 minutes of each other?

Been 2 overnights for a few weeks it was even a few 3 overnights a couple weeks ago must be down to LHR slots surely ?

BA 1328/9
 

It’s keeping slots open for long haul flights that currently aren’t operating. As is the use it of lose it way LHR slots operate.

Seems strange and Leeds cannot get a overnighter !
