The Flybe suits are due back end of next week from what I understand, but as you say they are in the soup so this may have changed the game slightly. The timescale of money distribution is the only...

I’ll likely hear more details over the weekend, but no timescales on this yet other than a 2019 launch.

Wouldn’t shock me to see them back on STN if they could get some of the proposed Stormont monies. As you say, it is Ryanair, expect anything.

Hi cuthere

Indeed would love to see MAN, BHX and BRS back. Surely bmi could look at doing at least one more STN rotation during the day as well. Doesn’t make sense to me having it sit there idle...

Looks like FR have increased the LDY- LPL service to 3 x weekly across the summer schedule. Still a dismal frequency for this flight which should be daily, if not double daily on some days.

First flight appears to be full, with a few seats left on the evening rotation. Positive signs at this early stage. Hopefully it will encourage bmi regional to try a few other destinations too.

Maybe Chidken Sangwich would be kind enough to enlighten us further with their insider knowledge?

Possibly some money being set aside for upgrading the field? It needs a new taxiway linking down to Runway 08, and the Alpha taxiway needs upgraded also.

I wonder who has the spare metal to utilise at LDY? Do EZY or BE have a few extra just lying around?
Could we even see LS try STN-LDY with their upcoming expansion plans there?
