For now, but as deliveries ramp up would expect more bases to convert. Next year and 2026 will be the years it starts IMO.

It was said to be FedEx but back in 2006(ish), so I suspect RAFAT may have crossed wires.

At the time I do not believe the level of traffic FedEx would have generated was enough to justify...

Well I was insinuating that perhaps the contract will be curtailed. Bit extreme though, more likely that KLM just haven’t updated their website.

Of course…

At the moment the on KLM site the HUY and MME have Eastern until 31st May then back on to KLM aircraft, perhaps it’s not been updated yet? Or…?

I hope you’re right, but subbing the flights, that you suggest are a massive strength, out to a third party with questionable OTP and reliability appears to be a strange decision if they value the UK...

I think Eastern genuinely want to make it work, just wonder what the source of the delays actually is. Is it aircraft unreliability? Optimistic scheduling? Issues at AMS?

The reason I used them as an example is that they all have over 1 million people within a 60 minute drive of the airport, had a lot more flights than they do now and ultimately lost market share to...

No it didn’t only affect CWL, I made that very point in my last post. MME was handling just shy of 1mppa at its peak, it’s now at around 25% peak value. HUY almost 600,000 and now lucky if it passes...

Youre comparing to a time when there were far more airlines around. When CWL had Bmibaby as a base, they no longer exist. Flybe gone, Thomas Cook gone, go further back and recall all the tour...
