A bit of positivity wouldn’t go amiss regardless weather they were to come to LBA or not all I seem to read is the negativity and why they won’t come etc.. Moving on to domestic there’s been talk that the airport are hoping to gain more domestic routes (Londons been mentioned) and that they...

The Problem is space at the minute as most nights there’s aircraft being parked on the taxiway which to me suggests more stands are needed. Being over on those stands last night I saw what looked like construction work so I’m assuming they’re getting ready to start building the new stands. They...

No that’s starting next week I believe.

It will be LBA based later on when they swap on the PMI run

The biggest Aircraft they have had is a B737-700BBJ Aircraft

Todays EasyJet A320 about to return to Malaga with a special Austria livery

It’s not the best stand to use for an outbound as they have to use the buses to get the pax to the plane. Mainly gets used only when it’s busy or they park one of the Jet2 B733s on it during night stop.

The BOJ flights are generally quite busy. The challenge this summer is having aircraft available to operate any additional flights Jet2 may want to add as I’m told that they’re actually short of aircraft for their flying program due to airbus delivery delays (the reason they’re basing an A330 at...

But then Manchester has more rotations with KLM and also has EasyJet on the route whereas LBA only has KLM.

It’s cancelled any passengers that were on the return have been put on the MAN flight. Aircraft were meant to tailswap at Dalaman but because GDFY has gone tech that has ruined those plans.

It belongs to Air Explore. B738 OM-OEX is to be based for Jet2 at BHX for this Summer season.

Great photos I believe that new walkway link bridge will be for passengers that are using boarding gates 9 and 10.

It’s worth taking into account that this week is the last week for flights to Keflavik for the season with the last one on Sunday so I’d expect them to be quieter but I believe other flights have been mostly full throughout the season.

Usually the target is 40 minutes from the aircraft arriving to having the bags on the belt so like Aviador says 25 minutes seems pretty good and quick for me.

Aircraft can be parked on taxiways. Usually only happens if they’re short of stands. The aircraft will park and then the airport personnel will put background markers out (red and white color) which indicates that the taxiway is closed and is technically a stand in which ground crew would be...

I’ve heard they intend to build at least 2 stands every year for the next 5 years so intend to have 10 by the end but I’m not sure how accurate this is.

Yes but that’s why they have been going to EMA for paint as they intend on keeping them for a while yet. Maintenance gets done at LBA or heavy at DUB or SNN.

Like the last 2 and half years have and they’re still closed.

They’ll be around for a few more years yet. They’ve been sending them to EMA for a fresh lick of paint so suggests they’re sticking around for a while.

You hear that by a lot of people at the airport but they’re never right
