    I'm suprised they don't route the DUB flights thru Manchester but there again that maybe being pompous on my part and assumes we have a larger market to Africa. Unsure how to quantify that one !

    Route Development & Rumours

    I was just thinking about the high pressing that the BHX marketing team did a few years back and the fact they had the 1st charters outside London, so yes I would sat it's a bit of a blow. Maybe the BHX supporters can offer a view ?

    Well at least ifrom a Manchester perspective it wouldn't be a swap out with Hainan. Figures for Dublin overall are powering ahead !

    Do we know who is operating the DUB Beijing service assuming there is a grain of truth on the latest rumour on dried fruit. In addition are we still daily for summer ? Is it possible Hainan may have "moved" a unit from our neck of the woods .

    Primera Air

    This looks like another "pick n mix" from Primera. 3x in December but then weekly after Christmas? Surely there are better routes available in Winter ?

    Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    The one that got away..... Those lucky blighters at Liverpool must have been salivating yesterday as a Transaero 737 positioning Lasham to Dublin got caught with his /her pants down and having got airborne promptly discovered DUB was snoclo. No problem having stuffed The NoDiv notam down the...

    Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    I think you missed the point. The Shuttle was cancelled late yesterday afternoon in "anticipation" of snow. That has morphed into an operational issue today with the inability to de ice at a sufficient rate to maintain the schedule. A check of the departure boards for Heathrow Gatwick Luton...

    Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    And currently the 1750 metar is showing 10kms or more whilst the punters on the 1820 shuttle which has been cancelled will no doubt be spun a line about adverse weather. Not good enough !

    Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    Yes Thursday seems to be the day. Cancelling flights on Sunday for Monday is taking a prudent approach to stratospheric levels , hence my scepticism. Cancelling a "light load" is an easy target for the BA , more problematic for the passenger's who have now missed connections perhaps uneccessarly .

    Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    If the load factor is as light as the "possibility" of snow this has to be an entirely prudent and indeed predictable measure. A BA spokesperson said.... "Unlike the irresponsible and cavalier attitude of some airlines who protect ALL their schedules and all their passengers convenience at...
