Does sound like U2 are being quite serious with their cut threat then. Defo 2 winners here though:
Emerald as previously mentioned
U2 themselves as I am sure there are more lucrative routes than UK mainland to BFS. That said these are a useful schedule filler due to their short block times.

Could be some interesting times ahead. And of course U2 are clearly taking LS on in the holiday market so cutting BFS-UK back may create extra capacity for the LS battle

The government are going to be happy as this helps them meet environmental targets.
 
The point of higher taxes is to raise money. If the motivation was about reducing demand for flying then (a) taxes rises would be higher (b) they would have explicitly linked the tax rise to a targeted reduction in flying and (c) they wouldn’t be talking up airport expansion at places like Heathrow or overruling the local council in East London with regard to expansion at LCY

That’s what they want you to think. But to quote @Aviador. Bullshit. It’s to reduce flying which is why the protest and points by Ryanair / MOL and easyJet are so right.

This will only give them a green light to extend it further. Quite frankly airlines should hold all APD collected and not give it to the idiots until they’ve backed down.

After all our Prime Minster along with all the other government owned ministers are all working in conjunction with the WEF which wants to end flying for those not in the elite club. The sooner we wake up to the fact we’ve got traitors committing treason working for the WEF/UN and not British people the better.
 
Notwithstanding the usual conspiracy theories, here is the reasoning behind the increases in APD as stated by HMRC.

Policy objective​

This measure helps to account for the real-terms fall in APD rates given rate increases have fallen behind inflation in recent years due to differences between forecast and actual RPI.

The additional increase to the higher rates ensures that APD costs as a proportion of the hiring costs for private jets are more in line with APD on commercial airlines as a proportion of airfares. The increase to the higher rate will ensure that users of private jets continue to make a fair contribution to the public finances.
 
It appears EZYs LBA-CDG is now operating 2 X weekly until the 20th of June with a restart on the 1st of September. Surely on the brink of becoming year round?

It now means during June and between September & October easyJet will be operating up to 12x weekly services from Leeds/Bradford on 4x routes.

Belfast Int’l = 4x weekly Mon, Thu-Fri & Sun
Palma = 4x weekly Mon, Wed, Fri & Sun
Malaga = 2x weekly Wed & Sun
Paris Cdg =2x weekly Mon & Fri

Is this more then TUI?

also the GVA service starts in 15 days. Hopefully it will return next year with some slightly better times.

easyJet extends CDG flights! ✈️

Due to popular demand, flights with easyJet from LBA to Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) are now on sale until 1st June 2025! 🗼 After a short summer break, flights will resume on 1st September 2025!

Book now ✈️ https://bit.ly/3DG3xAe
 
EZY GVA starts next Saturday and I was having a look into the flights, surely this route for 6 weekly period is purely a slot sitter for easyJet?

The first outbound arrives into GVA at 22:10, nobody skiing wants to arrive that time then have a 2/3 hour transfer to the resort. Then the SAT flights switch to SUN then departs very early from GVA at 06:40.

I mean I'm sure easyJet are very aware of this. Hope it preforms the best it can but I struggle to see how. Hopefully it will come back next year with some better times.

All checked in for my flight to Sydney from Manchester via Heathrow. Been waiting for this trip for nearly a year and now tomorrow I'll finally head to Australia and New Zealand!

survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
