    Manchester Airport - General Thread

    are they longer hours than previously? That should help with boosting movements and therefore passenger numbers. In particular, I don't recollect Sunday morning ever needing that and the afternoon dual operations from 1600 not 1300

    we've outsourced a lot of the roles so we are down to just having Team Managers and Team Seniors for those departments involved. Already worked out what a redundancy payout for me will be - between £6k and £11k depending on how they view 2017 as I was made redundant from 1 role but given a...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    I noticed the YP story on Facebook and someone in the comments wanted DSA to have flights to Australia, Japan, China and California. Another buffoon said they through that both Emirates and Etihad has chosen MAN is their UK "hub and so wouldn't likely want to move their hub but perhaps one of...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    I just wish someone when interviewing the proponents of this folly airport would prior to the 1st question just proffered up something like this; Nothing says more about the North of England being "open for business" than having talk of TUI and Jet2 operations taking British holidaymakers...

    Route Development & Rumours

    when it comes to long haul,, I would say that Pakistani and Indian routes are the ones that seem to be able to launch with relatively short lead tine. Otherwise it's normally 6 to 9 months that people have to wait to fly the routes

    Route Development & Rumours

    For Africa links, getting Egyptair would be the next best bet as they can cover North, East and West Africa. Southern Africa would still be the preserve of Emirates and Qatar

    Daily Direct Link from BHX to the US

    MAN is losing the 5 weekly Houston by Singapore Airlines with Virgin having Atlanta/JFK frequency reductions so that the Las Vegas service still runs - I would rather have the frequency in place of maybe 20 or 30 seats extra on the remaining services. The hard sell is telling airlines that...

    Route Development & Rumours

    Ethiopian seems to be on target for around 74000 passengers in 2024 at MAN 2023 = 82000 2022 = 47000 plus the expectation that they will be adding a 6th weekly service during the course of the year. The unknown factor is what the cargo figures are for them as that may be adding a lot more...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    not to worry, I been called a puerile remark by him. now Just by raising the spectre of libel action I just wanted to put the wind up him as although it's not likely, there is always the chance of Peel wanting to make an example of those who perpetrate lies.

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?
