Interesting, despite other reductions, to see EK expansion including various European routes. Curious in times of pilot shortage.
Presumably also the new EY BCN service is a direct replacement for the dropped (last flight today) EDI service?

Dubai – Amsterdam eff 01DEC18
Increase from 14 to 19 /wk from 07JAN19
Dubai - Prague 1 to 2 daily now First Class
Dubai - Hamburg A380 replaces 773
Dubai – Moscow Domodedovo eff 25OCT18 Increase from 2 to 3 daily
Dubai – Stockholm Arlanda eff 01DEC18 Increase from 1 to 2 daily, 3-class 777-300ER
Dubai - Ryiadh increase to 4 daily
Dubai - Toronto Pearson increase from 3 to 5 weekly eff 31AUG18
Dubai - Luanda increases from 5 /wk to daily

The PRG route isn't being increased, it is listed as being reduced from 2 to 1 daily? The reductions elsewhere may be what is allowing any increases to be made if the overall system wide capacity isn't actually changing much?

Anyway, I don't think it needs over analysed at this stage. The adjustments have been made, it'll be back to daily from April (runway works aside), and the CAA stats will reveal the route's popularity in time. It's still an increase in the overall DXB-Scotland capacity which I think is how EK will be viewing it given the proximity of the airports.

Some celebration today as Emirates inaugral flight to Dubai starts.

198 passengers came off a 354 seater model 773 A6-EGC inbound DXB-EDI
That would be a nice flight if some additional razzmetaz for launch.

Hainan reducing winter schedule further from 3 to 2 weekly between 28 October and 30 March according to Routesonline.

As part of the Ryanair cutbacks, Weeze and Baden-baden stop for the winter, and Hahn permanently. Eindhoven survives.

Ooft! A lot of chopping and changing with frequencies and aircraft types can never be a good sign winter or not. Presumably customers having to be cancelled/rebooked which would be off putting.
Doubt even a direct routing could boost this service.

NRN may be a recent change not sure, but FKB has never been available for W18/19 and HHN has been summer only for some time now. It normally goes on sale at a later date to most EDI routes as it is operated by a HHN based aircraft.

EIN has actually been taken off sale for S19, remains to be seen whether it is just a reshuffle or it is being cut.

I thought that at least some of these were available when I checked last week, but I may be wrong.

According to my Icelandic friends WOW are to discontinue the Edinburgh flights.
Just passing on what I was told.

Think it's only for winter (which I thought was a good time to visit Iceland and was popular for northern lights tourism etc). If they've dropped it totally then that's a shame.

inOban 4th Oct 2018 13:48
During the winter Easyjet throw capacity at the route 5/wk. Only 2/wk in summer. And since much of the WOW target market is heading to North America, hardly surprising that they are cutting back. Aren't there also questions about WOW finances?

Homo Simpson 4th Oct 2018 14:27
I believe they are not in the best shape financially.
Winter is becoming a very popular time of year to visit Iceland.

Plane mad 134 4th Oct 2018 15:48
This is becoming a mess losing so many routes in a short time if frequency decreases if true, hopefully Easyjet and Ryanair pick up some more routes would also be nice to get another 2nd based Tui Aircraft :)

I thought that much of winter traffic is locals escaping for some daylight and shopping

If you try to book, there are no flights after November 5.

Looks like a glitch but Loganair starting new route to Fair Isle from next summer 2x weekly on Monday and Friday, I thought the Saab340 was too big for Fair Isle?

it's not direct, connection with Kirkwall

Ok thanks, I also heard Delta could be announcing Boston soon on B767 aircraft, I hope it's true as it would help cover up the Norwegian loss.

VickersVicount 7th Oct 2018 13:22
Would be surprised to see that. Esp as Lisbon only got a seasonal 757. The US market couldnt sustain additional routes with Norwegian as we've seen even with budget prices so flooding it again on a mainline legacy widebody makes no sense.
