I wonder how long the airport will like to be associated with an airline that has such a terrible record of cancellations. It’s not great. I wonder if the vanished tomorrow how hard it really would be to fill their slots. Eurowings I’m sure could pick up the German routes.. I’m not impressed...

Yes it did. It’s on the nqy airport Facebook page. All good for weekend number 1!

Not sure the link worked but it didn’t get cancelled and NQY tweeted about it.

I stand corrected in Berlin...

Indeed.. lots of airlines use it and the airspace for flight training

They are doing ok however.. I wonder how well they would do (as in better) if it was in private hands? I’m not sure what kind of numbers they would need to sustain for this but I’m guessing +500k pa.. if they have another good year and Alicante does well through the winter then I would hope...

No, dash 8 both Berlin and Stuttgart.. the latter I thought was supposed to be a 319.. only Düsseldorf on the larger jet for now Will see what happens this weekend

Thanks LY.. i expect them to make that back up with the early RA starts this year. Still all good for the airport.

No idea. Not good for a first flight..

Was good to see three eurowings flights on the boards for Saturday... not so good though that the inaugural Berlin flight looked to have been cancelled. Anyone know anything? Was a lovely day to be flying into kernow...

Norwegian have big plans for LGW and quite vocal about it. They are constrained by access to slots at LGW but as soon as they can, the airport will be its main LH base. I think they are already the main LH carrier there. Qatar was a chance missed which ever way you look at it. Nearly 7 million...

100% agree with Marko1 on this. Makes no sense to me..

I’m almost a little tired of hearing the same old from the airport in terms of legacy carriers. They do need to diversify in a way that keeps everyone happy. Standsted is a good example of an airport that is looking to do just that to grow. It was basically Ryanair airport however recently they...

Thanks both for the detailed explanation...

I should probably know this but what is the deal with Cat 3b ILS? what does that actually mean and why is it not in operation on both ends of the runway? Is this normal?

Lets hope Ryanair and the airport do a better job of publicising to both Plymouth and the wider area the flights available from Newquay as PLY is a big old area to pull from.. Given its recent success, the airport are at some stage going to have think about it longer term plan. The terminal in...

That will be Devon and cornwall for you! On the plus side, you are right about Ryanair in terms of overseas flights. I’m hopeful that continued good loads will see them consider a couple more sun routes. For all the stay at homes there are at least a couple that need some foreign sunshine. With...

Interesting read, thanks.... Out of interest, how does this translate to scope for winter LH options?

Well with big increases for TUI at Exeter, Bristol, Bournemouth and Cardiff, I think it’s put to bed for now any hope for NQY. Probably very ambitious anyhow. Hoping Ryanair might think about a canaries winter flight and maybe palma in the coming year(s)
