Interesting on Question Time last night a Halifax resident complaining it took up to three hours for her daily commute each way from halifax to Manchester centre.
Transport in the north compared to the south a disgrace, even Andy Burnham the Greater Manchester Mayor on the Sunday Politics complaining the average bus fare in the Manchester region is £4 and yet in London £1.50, yet Crossrail running £2Billion over budget and London fares frozen.
Just home after over 2 hours from J18 of the M6 on a lovely sunny day.
All this bad press for the M62 and the forthcoming closure of the Trans Pennine train route in parts over the next 5 years, must be good news for LBA.
 
Scary. Was just going to post re the same thing. LM have no interest in LBA as far as I am aware. Question is, are BE and T3 going to sit there and watch LM slowly gobble up the UK domestic market. It really is time ABZ was back from LBA. I get routes like EDI and GLA are tricky to operate profitably due overland possibilities but ABZ should be doable. I am just hoping the new hospital type scanners that have to be in all UK airports within the next couple of years reduce check in times and therefore make domestic air travel more appealing once again - certainly for an LBA perspective. CWL is another tricky overland and the near continent has already been well documented. But knowing what I know when I explored the airline set up, it has to be an established airline willing to give it a go unless someone can afford not to miss several millions. A crying shame really but equally a sign of the times. Our airport is just too damn central in regards to the rest of the UK
 
Being reported elsewhere and video I've now seen is that PIA are planning to resume services back to Leeds in May next year with Boeing 777 equipment.

I'll believe it when I see it touch down either on Runway 14 or 32.
Hang on just let me check - no its not April 1st :)

ps Seen the video too, looks like its been put together by a 10 year old
 
I will take anything new at present. What with Jet2 removing 757's, Ryanair chopping back, FlyBe reducing frequencies, and Snowman's mate not even giving LBA a sniff with their new announcements, anything new is good news. Tin hats on though for a 777!!!
