Jet2 have just added Mykonos JMK to their Summer 20 programme from MAN. On sale from Sunday’s only from 24th May 2020, then goes twice a week Thursday and Sunday from July 16th until the end of September. Sunday flight continues until first week of November.

Kalamata KLX and Lesvos (Mytilene) MJT are now available to book on their website from MAN for Summer 2020.

What do members on here think of potential new routes for Easyjet from Manchester, for Summer 20 and beyond? I was looking at their current offerings, and was surprised that they don’t fly to Ibiza, even though there’s lots of competition. Also Figari in Corsica would be a nice seasonal...

It’s nice to see Manchester picking up more and more new routes with existing and new airlines. Looking through the routes served by our airlines at the moment I was surprised to see that Easyjet don’t serve Ibiza? What do people think about the chances of getting routes to Bucharest, Ljubljana...

Oviedo asturias, Ljubljana.

Rutamkrd, seeing a AC 737 Max overflying from LHR to Halifax is what prompted me into thinking, and writing the post.

Just sat in the garden with a pair of binoculars and FR24, and was wondering why the MAN to Canada market seems to be so poor now? Lots of aircraft overflying into London and even smaller European cities, like AC, Westjet, Transat, Rouge, BA. I know we have a few Transat, and Rouge on a very...

The new service by Ethiopian is great news for a Monday morning. Would be nice to see Thai make a similar announcement.

Well i’ve really enjoyed the discussions on here over the last couple of days, plenty of well informed comments from people, about the probability of new routes to Eastern European destinations in particular. So, if I may ask, what do members think about the possibility’s of flights to India...

It would also be nice to see Bucharest finally served.

Personally I like to see Wizz start at least one route from Manchester in the near future, preferably to a currently unserved destination.

I agree EGCC_MAN with your comments. Both Easyjet and Ryanair have lots of duplicated routes from both MAN and LPL, like so Jet2 from LBA. So how have rapidly growing airlines like Wizz not recognised the huge gaps in the Eastern European markets especially from Manchester? Has it been the...

When the TP is completed how much more space will we have? What new airlines on new and existing routes might we expect to see at MAN. Will we ever see Wizz or Blue start services to the underserved Eastern European destinations. What about WOW, KU, Biman, flights to India, Thailand, Malaysia...

Maybe BA are targeting the week long holidays in the Tuscan countryside with these flights then, instead of the quick “okay lets get away for a few days” customers, but I do hope if the advanced bookings are good that they add a midweek flight as well.

Nice to finally see FLR being served, but I wonder if a flight once a week will be the final schedule? Great if you want to visit Florence and Tuscany for a week, but not really serving the short break market very well, which the city in particular is most popular for. Anyway it’s a start and...
