    The independent should be forced to change its name. The days when it was politically unbiased are long gone. This is a non story. Until Jan next year any UK citizen has these rights. After this they will either retain the rights or there will be mechanisms to allow work in the EU which will be...

    Nice to see some winter capacity increases. Would like to see BOS and LAX get some winter service too. This combined with UA 76? Ops could see AA squeezed to a seasonal PHL service on the downside.

    American Airlines

    And now we have the 767 on PHL. Not permanent I know, but it shows their disregard for MAN. Still lots of whispers about an ORD replacement, with the candidates ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous.

    There’s been rumours regarding SQ and other USA flights going round for a few months now. ORD and IAD being the candidates. This was on the back of IAH increasing month on month and extra capacity needed on SIN-MAN. However, this route seems to have suffered a blip recently (unless the SIN-IAH...

    Etihad Airways

    Etihad need to improve their product compared to their competitors who are using 787, A350 and A380. This leaves them with the choice of A380 or 787. Personally, I think they jumped the wrong way

    Thomas Cook

    We currently have 8 A330s based plus a Portuguese cover aircraft due and I can’t imagine that shrinking for next summer. Maybe waiting to see what Virgin do? There’s also uncertainty about Chicago returning so it may just be a strategic delay whilst they consider the best deployment. Or it could...

There’s also uncertainty about Chicago returning so it may just be a strategic delay whilst they consider the best deployment. Or it could be bad news just like Miami which...

    Manchester Airport - General Thread

    Unless there are any external shocks it seems likely that traffic will rise. The points above are valid, but there are strong arguments that numbers will rise. The lack of direct replacements for MON flights will help load factors to these destinations in the remaining carriers as well as...

    India is impossible to say.Jet looked before choosing Brussels. Air India were very close a few years ago. Scoot have had discussions. SpiceJet set up flight details this year. Latest movements are Jet/Virgin. People talk about indigo and vistara. In the meantime TCX and TUI have started Goa...

    easyJet

    Sherburnflyer92 your posts read like you are critical of people who have posted credible inside info onto this site. At the time of posting these were the plans of easyJet. Up to 20 based was the plan, not just a speculative gesture as some seem to think. However, this hasn’t happened. This does...

    Ryanair

    Physical stands being maxed out are not a barrier to the number of aircraft that can be based. Terminal and runway capacities are the restricting factors.

    Long haul fleet plans aren't yet known but must be in the minds of the board as Condor 767s are ageing too. A joint order would make sense and I guess an all airbus fleet would have merits.

    Loganair

    I can’t converse with you mostly because I don’t want to, but also because we have different sources for our “opinions”. Aceshigh you come on here and instruct Loganair on what they need to do to be a success. EGCC.... accuses people he doesn’t know making decisions based on information he...

    Loganair

    The “analysis” of what has happened between LM and BE on here is so basic and lacking in understanding. Essentially BE tried to obliterate LM and thereby acquire a greater market share. Common sense breaking out as you all sing together could not occur until LM established that it could not be...

    Chicago hasn't been year round for a while. The season 2018 will be the shortest yet tho and probably the last.
