Does anyone know when Loganair might announce what European cities it plans to serve with the ER4’s joining the fleet for S19?. I have heard that BRU will almost definitely be one of the routes announced and have heard rumours of flights to CPH.

Just thinking about this. Why would the APD not apply for onward connections?

I understand APD not applying for the initial 'lifeline' links between the highlands and islands and the mainland, but why should people not pay it on the onward legs?

There already is an incentive - no APD.

Is Loganair profitable? Where can I find financial performance data?

The loss was only due to the fact that they went out on their own instead of a franchise, branding etc

Loganair are taking over from Eastern Airways as operator of BACF’s up to 3 x daily IOM-LCY service from 01SEP18. Crew currently based at IOM and employed by Eastern are to be TUPEd to Loganair. Flights will be operated by a S2000 which will be based at IOM. It is unclear if the S2000 operating the route will be painted in full BA livery.

Hopefully Loganair will prove to more reliable operator than Eastern Airways has been in recent months.

As soon as I heard Eastern were stopping the Isle of Man to London route for BA I always thought Loganair would take over because of their previous partnership with them and they also have the right size of aircraft.

Good that they found a use for the aircraft that was earmarked for Carlisle

Mmm, not sure on their daily reliability, especially stretching resources on new sectors and bases. My last two flights with loganair (Wick) were one and two hours (SYY) delayed on 30min flights.
Cant be any worse! Is this Loganair's first trip to LCY?

No they’ve been there before, when under the Flybe franchise.

From what I know, the Carlisle-based aircraft was supposed to be a Saab 340.

Jamesair 15th Aug 2018 21:44

i understood it was to be a Saab 340 for Carlisle

TartinTon 16th Aug 2018 17:37

I don't doubt that it was but all it means is that they can use the 340 elsewhere on the current network and switch a 2000 to IOM

Logan operated Do.328s from LCY after absorbing the former Suckling/Scot Airways outfit.

Hmmm... Back in service with BMR as of yesterday, operating out of Bristol.

Nice to see XJ again after a long time. She, alternating with XK, was based at Leeds Bradford for a few years operating mainly Brussels and Glasgow schedules, neither of which we have now. Are you paying attention, Logan ?

Interesting approx fuel burn comparisons
Saab340 ~400kg/hr
Saab2000 ~ 900kg/hr
ERJ135 - 1100kg/hr

Obviously the fuel flow is only part of the economics with faster quicker flight times, full ownership and no repayments. I think maintenance costs of Saabs are also disproportionate.
BMI have done okay with them so dont think theres a major issue here. Im sure Loganair have 'done the math'

"Done the math" - Wow, you American? But anyway, I'm sure they've done their sums as they say in Scotland and nice to see another Jet in Loganair colours and I'll hopefully have a flight in it soon.
