Agreed to some extent but this is a wider problem than just the LM routes ex MAN. The smaller niche regional airlines need to be able to top up with leisure pax and actually £13 will matter to those leisure pax and routes are dying, yes for a variety of reasons, but in the main because the...

@Starflyer I am sure you can't say any more, but knowing how accurate you always are, your comments are increasingly concerning

And what do you "base" that theory on @lbaspotter

Yes D-ANDI tomorrow, doesn't n/s as D-ADDY due Saturday for the trip home And for once in my life there is absolutely no pun/joke contained there - genuine aircraft registrations

At the risk of sounding like a stuck record, APD, APD, APD. Ok it's not the only reason, long check-in times and currently Geo political. circumstances. But also whilst the LCCs have opened up flying to the masses, they have killed frequency on domestics

Maybe it's a relaunch of Links Air with a J31 operating 3 or 4 rotations a day. With a 100% LF that a max of 152 pax a day. They seriously do need to get real - there is absolutely no future in this vanity project

As I posted in the LBA route thread I hope this makes your former esteemed mayor, now our esteemed PM, realise that something needs to happen with UK APD, especially for domestic flights

Wow, a Jet2 A21N at LBA!! Sorry couldn't resist!

As @YorkshireLad says @Starflyer is usually bang on the money and with nothing really positive from him I too fear that the end of U2 at LBA is nigh but LBA will say we can still grow "With Or Without You"

It's the imminent announcement of Vueling on ORY, BCN, AGP and PMI that's frightening U2 off......oh wait .......is it that time already!

Yep the UK domestic market is pretty much shot to bits. Wonder what our esteemed new PM will make of his beloved MAN losing those connections? Hope it makes him realise something needs to be done re UK APD, especially domestic flight related

Is this the right channel for such a comment?

Exactly @Pudseylad that's why I asked the question I did

So the appeal to stop LTN expanding to 32mppa has been rejected. LGW has permission to move it's emergency runway approx 12m north to allow for up to 100,000 extra flights per annum. Can anyone see common sense prevailing when/if a new night flying application is submitted by LBA?

Have you looked at the Air Yorkshire website? Their monthly mags are on there and they contain a movements log

I can assure you you haven't. But then I suppose I would say that wouldn't I........😜

What noisy ******** they were. OMG I sound like one of them!

There are 2 Boeing 737-300s to be retired at the end of S26 with the remaining 5 retired at the end of S27. That of course only affects LBA directly but indirectly affects elsewhere as they will be replaced with 800s displaced from other bases, so that is another contributing factor to the...

Very original re reg thinking from OP to OP!

Well Norse do apparently have 5 aircraft available after the termination of their agreement with Indigo so they will need to find something for those aircraft to do fairly sharp ISH, especially in the current industry climate
