    Help! How do I get to....? from Leeds Bradford?

    Did anyone notice KLM offered only 1 departure on Wednesday? For your summer / winter holidays with Jet2, a weekend break with Ryanair or visiting friends with Wizzair etc, LBA is fine. For most business trips and anything remotely long-haul, the current offering is quite frankly hopeless. Lets...

    Ryanair

    As the match was on Saturday, I wonder if they flew back on the inaugural Perpignan flight the next day. That would have saved the Dragons a considerable amount of money and presented both LBA and Ryanair with an excellent marketing opportunity.

    I certainly went on some of their coach trips in the late 80’s. I’m 99% sure the routing was Heathrow, Gatwick with a quick drop into Luton on the return. I wonder how many people on those coaches ~35 years ago are now active LBA F4A contributors:unsure:

    Yes, I was a member but only as a magazine recipient. I contributed to the movements section every time we had a holiday to Spain or Switzerland etc. For some unknown reason I remember the Luton contributors name : Kaz Ale - no idea why.

    KLM

    Bizarrely, Norwich is back to 3 x daily so we have a current schedule comparable with Teesside, Humberside and Cardiff. Not great bearing in mind KLM is the only airline offering sensible / reliable connections from LBA.

    Airport Consultative Committee [Questions & Responses]

    Hump or no hump, I think the jury is still out in relation to the operational performance of the ILS on 32 when CAT 3 approaches are required. With LBA regularly in LVP at this time of year and with the RVR often below CAT 3A minimums, It really does put our little, hilltop airport at a...

    Could LUFC's latest recruit be inbound to LBA tomorrow? Keep an eye on Challanger 300 OK-RPM.

    The time the flight leaves is irrelevant, it's the time you joined the queue that counts. For them it was 60+ minutes, so you must have been semi lucky with 42 minutes.

    Airport Security, Immigration & Border Control

    Family flew to AGP on the LS185 this morning. Queue at security was still over 1 hour which appears poor based on other recent airport experiences.

    Flybe

    Dilemma. I have meeting at LBA in late September. Should I use Flybe even though of the 4 flights previously booked, only 2 have actually operated – Y / N ?
