DSA set to re open spring 2026!
Just need to get Jet2 and some other low costs on board now.
I can almost hear Jess Gylnne on the donny tarmac nowwell I bet its not open for Spring 2026, and you won't be seeing Jet 2 on the tarmac any time soon!![]()
I would exercise caution with statements like that. We have 17 years of history to draw from here, ‘right’ operator or not.I can almost hear Jess Gylnne on the donny tarmac now— it is time
Would eastern/KLM really want to abandon a market that has been served for 50 years, where they have their HQ and get free parking amongst other things, to move to an airport that struggles to get 10 people on flights to DUB?Can only see eastern,KLM or aer lingus serving Doncaster for the time being
The truth is you know no more than I do. Just friendly banter chill. What will be will beCan only see eastern,KLM or aer lingus serving Doncaster for the time being

Just truly astonishing all this.
I’m watching it, whilst I listen to people who really know their stuff tell me things that will never make it online. I don’t need to divulge things though to be able to make a solid case for why this should not receive another penny in public money, because the evidence is there for all to see, they just prefer to believe a nonsense conspiracy theory. Seems that’s also what’s driving the Council.The truth is you know no more than I do. Just friendly banter chill. What will be will be

Watch this space you’re as clueless as the rest of us.I mean they could open up DSA but -
TUI don't have the fleet to reopen the base to the scale it once was unless they want to downscale other bases or set up with ACMI operator which would not be good for the customer.
Wizz Air are happy, with LF higher then it was at DSA and yield/revenue and profit higher at LBA. So why would they return. And it's no secret that they have issues with the A321's.
Jet2 are not going to set up a base in middle of two catchment areas with two large scale bases at either of those catchments areas. You either travel north or south for a Jet2 flight.
easyJet and Ryanair are the outliers but again easyJet don't seem to have anything in the midlands or Yorkshire so that's a possibility. But they'd probably want the airport that is going to have better yield therefor better revenue/profit. Ryanair would ... but again why when they too have LBA/EMA.
There is 0 possibility of this becoming a success cargo hub like EMA ... so it's another labour politician without knowledge of how the airline industry works.
I can’t talk for sherburnflyer, but we aren’t all as uninformed as you claim us all to be. Just most people won’t bother posting on here or elsewhere. I do know some are watching quietly thoughWatch this space you’re as clueless as the rest of us.
About DSA? No, but there are people openly talking with skepticism about this, and some might be people the DSA operators would probably need to convince.To be honest if anybody does know are they really likely to post until it is really known and confirmed

I couldn’t comment on Wizzair as all I know is what’s been said by others on here, up to and including the route performance since moving to LBA. I do know that they are paying more to fly from LBA, so if DSA was to offer incentives as before then they may decide to return even if they also stay at LBA as there is still a sizeable Eastern European community in Lincolnshire.Right. Okay.
I'll also quote what John Prescott said when he approved Doncaster to be converted from RAF base to a commercial airport. There is no need nor demand for such airport but given it could end up a decent industrial complex he will approve.
I guess I'm clueless too when - Wizz Air have openly declared that LBA is better for their ops see LBA thread. easyJet made it last what a year max? Flybe did exactly what? TUI don't have 100+ aircraft on order also last time I checked. Yes they have the Max 10's but even then there is a high chance they won't be approved for flight by 2026. But I guess I'm clueless.
I think at the moment we’re the deluded ones Finger66.. Time will tell.A phrase I will use is cringeworthy rather than newsworthy right at this moment. We all have an opinion and most are on the same side. It's only the deluded few that arent
