Passengers would be trooped off at Manchester re screened and trooped back on. Any one failing screening would be detained in Manchester and returned east ( might well have a nice escorted mini bus ride down to Slough Windsor and Hounslow regional)or more probably via Doha/Dubai or Abu Dhabi...

The issue with none stop KWI-JFK is the same as with PIA in that the US security agencies are unsatisfied with local security levels, and particularly passenger vetting standards in Kuwait such that they are demanding secondary screening at an intermediate point to approved standards...

Yes it is was D-ABGG transferred to AB Swiss as HB-IOY in 2010 ,returned to Germany and operated by Germania for few seasons hence the current serial, returned to Air Berlin in 2014 and transferred under the Eurowings lease arrangement just this month.

Many March services to/from Hamburg have already been operated by Air Berlin aircraft and crew however you won't immediately notice as they are already in full Eurowings livery Air Berlin have quietly been working with LH Group for some time - They were operating the TXL-LHR route for them...

The slow down (heavy brake) on the economy in Q4 has been predicted with some certainty since the autumn and the signs have been with us with delay/cancelation, none start and consolidations for some months ! Air Malta going American not even operating a daily service at the moment and Q4 -...

True however Indian international aviation remains subject to heavy handed political influence more so than simple commercial decisions. When Air India closed the last Manchester and other secondary European services using the A310s it was because the GOI politico's wanted/demanded them focus...

You are right Air India will do the bidding of what GOI and more so of the regional authorities of Delhi determine. That doesn't necessarily chime with the economical priorities of the airline. And many will moan/decry the continued dominance of the ME3 +1 (Oman) by not getting the archaic use...

What benefit would the MEN score from reporting about those out of region events. The "Good news" story is BA (or rather a LOCAL based but non operating subsidiary) are going to fly a few services from the airport just two stations down the line from the office ! The COO of BHX is something of...

Candidates with the money Chinese Investment Agencies such HNA they are looking at global airport investments in a big way, Middle Eastern Trusts (Remember they can't be for profit under islamic rules !!), Airport groups such FRAPort,MAG (unlikely), Peel (Are hopeless in the airport business...

Annual spud picker season flight to Maderia operated by Germania today.

There are two Irish registered CR9s operating out of Oslo by Cityjet for SAS at the moment. Cityjet are operating 8 in total for SAS in addition to the 11 Danish register ones that are based in Copenhagen

And yet surprisingly Heathrow has added more than 5 million passengers in that time without a single yard of extra concrete !

Nop they only have four A332s all C20Y196 and just 3 A333 with first F6C20Y204 (The only First configured aircraft in the fleet) . As can be seen not much difference in the middle or down the back really. The three A333 frames normally operate daily WY102/103 to Heathrow and eastwards to Kuala...

These are commercial operations by Cityflyer and nothing to do with testing any waters by mainline imho. BA have more than enough data and intelligence to assess the NW market place. A few summer quasi charters by a subsidiary doesn't add much to that knowledge base. Remember Cityflyers...

For them to go away and stay away !

David already has !

Much more likely to be a return to Salvador rather than Rio if ever a South American city tried again. Interestingly Condor are using a TCX 76W from FRA to SSA right this minute. With the total collapse of Venezuela Porlamar isn't coming back any time soon imho. I wouldn't think BKK on TCX...

Probably also to genarate a little revenue - rather better than a hop to Cardiff and back as has happened previously i suppose.

Nothing more than a couple of slot sitters necessary to comply with the 80% rule whilst pairing down a few seasonal long haulers through to March. Along wth the rotating daily JFK cancellation through the timetable this time of year.

Just been down shops however you will notice one missing partner and that's Thomas Cook/Condor, where they have a commercial agreement allowing TCX/CFG to market and sell connections from various UK, Dutch and German points over their Manchester and Frankfurt leisure based long haul network...
