It’s Tuesday tomorrow WH 😬

I think we’re all well aware on here that @LBA4EVER has a love for things that are sprayed orange 🍊…so of course he wants to see EZY big at LBA

Not sure if it’s been reported on here but I’ve just noticed that Almeria is going to 2 a week…finally, from summer 26. They have added a Tuesday flight for the full season. Also looking at Jet2holidays last night and seat plans the new Jerez flights are selling really well too. The first flight...

I was ground staff for Midland at LBA 96-99. We basically codeshared with anyone and everyone on the LHR flights. I remember the BD413 10:00 departure was a United Airlines shuttle with over half the flight connecting with UA at LHR.

I flew LBA-BVA-LBA with FR Friday & today. New boarding card scanner gates were all open and working on Friday evening. No problems at all. Flight to BVA was almost full with 182 on board. Return to LBA hassle free…apart from the 2am alarm call to catch the airport coach from central Paris up...

I flew LBA-PMI last night with easyJet. Security was a breeze to pass through and departures was quiet. 73 on board, which for a Wednesday evening in the first week of April I didn’t think was too bad at all.

I’m flying to PMI next Wednesday evening so will try and get the loads.

I’m trying out a few EDT’s (Extreme Day Trips) I booked the Jet2 flight in January for £36 and it was still selling at that price yesterday. My easyJet flight back tonight is on a A321 and is showing a dozen unoccupied seats on the seat map.

I flew LBA-KEF this morning with Jet2, back into MAN with easyJet this evening. Got the 05:00 A1 from Leeds with no problems which got me to LBA around 05:40 No queue at all for security. As someone else has already noticed there are now 4 electronic boarding card gates in the security...

I flew FR LBA-OTP-LBA last week for 2 nights in Bucharest. Both flights operated on Max’s and I’d say 95% full. Both flights parked on stand 8 so no buses required this time. LBA easy to pass through with no queues at security outbound and immigration inbound. Caught the train from OTP into the...

I flew LBA-WRO last Friday with FR. My flight was at 09:30 so I took buses up to LBA for £4 rather than £30ish for a taxi. 10 mins wait for security, just 1 lane in use but it was flowing fine. Went into WHSmiths and got into a friendly debate with other travellers when I saw that a pack of...

That was me yesterday. I will say that 3 hours after my Wizz flight back to LBA there was a FR flight to LBA, so 2 flights in the space of a couple of hours. Also chatting with the crew they said the return flight to GDN was full. I will also say that compared with FR there were loads of “Brits”...

I flew GDN-LBA this afternoon with Wizz. 166 on board. Really impressed with Wizz, nice crew & aircraft…I do like the 321Neo. Coaches delivered us to the arrivals door. There is now a large metal board at the bottom of the infamous escalator saying it’s out of service due to health & safety...

With these flights operating every day into LTN I can see the LBA based crew nightstopping in a Luton hotel then operating lates the next day ending up back at LBA. I was crew for Midland in the late 90’s early 00’s and we did sectors like this all the time. Saves a 3hour plus M1 trip...

I flew RAK-LBA today with Ryanair on a brand new 737Max. 188 pax onboard and the inbound from LBA looked full when it arrived in RAK. I will NEVER complain about security and immigration queues again after I passed through RAK this weekend. 2.5 hours this morning and 1 hour when I arrived on...

I have flown easyJet today from Gatwick to Ljubljana. I really like them. Love an Airbus…just seem so much bigger in the cabin than a 737. I hope we get some news about a few summer routes from LBA soon 🤞🏼

Yesterday afternoon, after a quick pub lunch, I flew FR DUB-LBA landing at approx 1530. After being an avid viewer of Blue Sky Aviation over the summer I know LBA gets busy at a certain time on Saturday afternoon, so I was expecting a few delays. Good Grief. It’s only when you’re in the middle...

I flew this morning with FR to Paris BVA then onwards to Dublin. LBA seemed busy but it took me only 4mins to join the short security queue and quickly through. I had lounge access gifted by a friend so had a full English which looked 100 times better than the one posted on here a few days back...

Just booked to go to Dublin next Saturday. The 6am to DUB is selling for £91 one way. Quick look around and the 6am to BVA is £15 then a BVA-DUB for €32 which will still get me there before lunchtime. 2 hours wait in BVA.

I didn’t realise EasyJet offer up to 6 flights a day on the MAN-AMS route matching KLM.
