    Future Infrastructure Developments

    I think they are all little dictators. They demand every one accept their lifestyles which they set for us, within their own narrow self righteous boundaries.

    Future Infrastructure Developments

    Re GALBA and Climate Change stopping air travel. Has anyone been to our many tourist hotspots here in the UK? They seem to be more crowded than usual (Pre Lockdown). Is this because it now so difficult to guarantee a trip to the usual tourist destinations abroad? If this is so, how much extra...

    Ryanair

    Yes, admittedly before covid19. Cancellation of previous booked flights to Fuerteventura. Contact online chat and money returned to my credit card the next day.

    Ryanair

    Looks like that flight had a good two and a half hours turnaround plenty of time for the brakes to cool down! Minimal reverse thrust if any to save fuel. Good old Ryanair. Always counting the pennies. Oh sorry Euro's.

    Aircraft Flying Overhead [OTT]

    Today a t about 1105hrs just east of Skipton, I heard the familiar whomp whomp sound of the UH-1. On looking up I could see it was flying North and painted white with what looked like military markings on the tail boom. Did anyone else see it or know what air force was flying it. I thought It...

    Monarch Airlines

    Am I plugging Ryanair again? Well maybe. But regards Monarch's late publication of fares. I think I would be correct in saying that Ryanair are usually the last to set fares for the oncoming season and yet always remain competitive. Maybe Monarch will benefit from this? On a totally different...

    Using Leeds Bradford Airport Questions & Reviews

    Yes anything can be made better. However for me living locally I find the location excellent. Car parking at Sentinel is the best service I have found. I regularly catch early morning flights. I arrive early especially in the summer months so as to avoid the congestion. I don't need a...

    Using Leeds Bradford Airport Questions & Reviews

    Can I say in regards to the bad reviews LBIA get, the replies on this forum over the past few days I agree with finding them fair and correct. I find UK airports are not that brilliant in general being cramped and over crowded. However Leeds is one of the better ones. For me there is good access...

    Ryanair

    whoshotjimme Thanks for the reply and I agree that ryanair do play one airport off another, but no one owes LBA traffic and it is open to all airports to offer the best deal for airlines. LBA and LPL will always have to compete with MAN surely that's what it's all about. Thankfully gone are...

    Ryanair

    I an a big fan of Ryanair and biased I probably am, but it does seem that Ryanair can see the potential In LBA by investing in extra flights.

    Airport Security, Immigration & Border Control

    just thought I would share this with you all and how things have changed over the past years. Walking out on the apron to board my flight reminded me of way back in the early sixties when I was about nine or ten. Me and my mate Paul (his dad was a pilot for Cambrian Airways) used to cycle over...

Me and my mate (his dad was a pilot for Cambrian Airways) used to cycle over to the Speke Airport about 20 minutes ride from our...

    I moved up here a few years ago and was surprised to see that some aircraft fly as far west as Skipton before turning on finals for runway 14.

    Thomas Cook

    I believe that Thomas Cook has secured aircraft financing of six A321-200s from Airbus after a purchase agreement dated November 2011, by way of a leasing agreement with GECAS. Lets hope we see a return of one or two to Leeds.

    Ryanair

    It's nice to here from so many people who have had a good experience with Ryanair. I for one welcome what Ryanair has done for the travel industry in bringing down fares and opening up new destinations. Yes it is basic and there are surcharges but these are up front and gives the passenger the...
