London Gatwick: New Route Development & Rumours

Discussions relating to London Gatwick Airport

The government will provide £1.8 million over two years to support flights within England between London Gatwick (LGW) and Newquay (NQY). The service will be operated by Eastern Airways from Dec. 9.
 
Some good news: Low Cost airline Scoot will be launching a Singapore-Bangkok-London Gatwick route. Flights starting in a few weeks on December 16th. At 3 weekly on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. Looks to be year round flights.
Aeroroutes reports that this service is to end in August unfortunately.
 
US-Bangla Airlines are looking to start London flights in 2023. No indication yet regarding which London airport or indeed which aircraft type will be used but I’m going to guess LGW (the anteroom for long haul airlines looking to get into Heathrow) is on their radar

 
This one seems to have gone under the radar.

Two routes to Vietnam have been scheduled to start this year:
Hanoi - 1 weekly flight starts October 30
Ho Chi Minh City - 1 weekly flight starts December 7

 
Bamboo Airways are terminating all long haul flights, with nothing bookable beyond November. Presumably the 787s will leave the fleet.

 
Saudia add a service to Neom Bay, with an A320 operating on Sundays

 
From June, Azerbaijan Airlines will have more flights per week from Gatwick (4 per week) than Heathrow (3). All flights are on the 787-8

Heads Up!

i must be a lunatic. Friday 25th Sept will see me doing a daytrip that involves me leaving my flat in Manchester at 1am and not getting back home until after midnight. All because I'm doing a Loch Ness and Scottish Highlands trip.... out of Glasgow
For some weird reason, my days off work tend to involve being out of my flat by 5am and not getting back until 10pm. Back to work and the regular "fix" of 7.40am to 7.15pm hours
Heatwave Mk2 next week?
Some explosive weather build-ups currently in the North of England. What is it like where you are?
LBA: B737-300 G-GDFK empty down to Paris at 16:15 to operate the return LS268 back to Leeds 20:00 ETA where it will then operate the delayed LS265 to Malaga 20:40ETD
