I'm trying to place Toulouse on map is it close to Alps....I know it's southern France

 

[Silvercity]

No it's too far West, maybe sking in Pyrenees. Of course Airbus factory is there.

It's north of the Pyreenes so could be good access for skiing.

Toulouse-Blagnac Airport is well used by winter sports enthusiasts seeking the slopes in the Pyrenees in France, Spain and Andorra.

In addition the route could prove useful for the business community involved with Broughton and Airbus projects.


Ali Gayward, UK country manager for easyJet, said: “We now offer 32 destinations from the airport and have seen sustained expansion in recent months. Toulouse is a fantastic destination which will appeal to those seeking a short break or visiting friends and family.

“We continue to see an increased number of travellers looking to fly with easyJet on routes from LJLA and with affordable fares and a short flight time to the South of France, we’re confident that this new service will prove popular with those flying from the North West.”

The Toulouse route will be the fourth new service opened by easyJet from Liverpool during 2018. Paul Winfield, director of aviation development at LJLA, added: ‘’We are delighted to welcome this new four times weekly service to Toulouse.

“The service will be popular with passengers travelling to Toulouse and the South West France region, and will provide a strong schedule for the business community, with operators such as Airbus located in Broughton.”

Airbus has a charter that flies between Toulouse and Hawarden i believe, i'm wondering if they'll use this flight more now.

Yes they do I think, I don't know how often , but maybe BAe has had something to do with the new EZY service.

Eastern has the contract for the Airbus corporate shuttle (it used to be bmi regional, now flybmi). As with bmi regional Eastern uses ER4 aircraft.

The flights invariably operate Hawarden-Bristol-Toulouse and there are several each weekday. easyJet has long had a daily TLS flight from BRS (4/6 weekly in winter) but that hasn't stopped Airbus using its shuttle. There are no Wed or Fri flights from LPL either.

I think it could still be used by them BAe at Harwarden and local contractors, it gives more choice. When I worked for AmexTravel we operated a charter for ICI, but not everyone was eligible to use it.

I'm not saying that 'aviation people' won't use it on occasions. I am saying that having a daily easyjet flight from Bristol to Toulouse has not overridden the need for the Airbus corporate shuttle from Bristol. BAE has a shuttle from Bristol to Walney Island (Barrow) - usually a couple of rotations each weekday. Do you know if they have their own shuttle from Hawarden?

Hawarden to Walney Island....no I don't know, but it's quite a long and windy drive so maybe they do, it would certainly save a lot of time. Plus the trains are no good, particularly now while Northern Fail are in such a mess.

New services began this weekend to Pula , Dalaman and Palermo.

Easyjet have a 3rd Amsterdam service on certain days, early afternoon.

That is correct. Liverpool currently has the following 8 aircraft based:

5x A320: G-EZTE, G-EZUN, G-EZUP, OE-IGP, OE-IVJ

Summer 2017 saw 5x A319s and 2x A320s based.
Peak Summer 2017 had 163 departures per week.

=EASYJET ARRIVAL ON 09

 

[Silvercity]

Departures is showing an Easyjet departure at 18.15 to London/Luton EZS 9572, it's delayed about 40 mins and I image just moving aircraft from one base to another. I haven't seen Luton mention before normally it's Gatwick, it did however reminded me of when Luton was a scheduled service of theirs.
