Eurowings

[ethanegcc]

I don't think we've got a Euro wings thread?

Anyway, thanks to LAX_LHR informing the prune forum, Euro wings will increase Manchester-Cologne to six weekly from a October, in addition to daily Ryanair operation.

Yes, just received a change notice advising that my MAN-DUS sector in July will now be operated by Air Berlin.

 

[rutamkrd]

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 until recently with a 737 in full Air Berlin colours.

Essentially Air Berlin are returning to their routes basically LTU 2.0 operating long haul mainly from Dusseldorf and a heavily scaled back the European scheduled network including closing the Palma hub operation and have ended codeshare arrangements with American in a hope of stabilising the business.

In an interesting twist through rather than closing and parking planes they come up with the ruse of actually operating services for arch rival Lufthansa Group with a nice lump of rent from them for crew and aircraft usage !

If they can stabilise, get some money and cash flow sorted the guys in the desert may be appeased at the same time.

Is D-ASTX an AB aircraft in full EW livery as that has been operating the HAM sector recently.

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.

Found this German link http://biztravel.fvw.de/eurowings-winterflugplan-201718-buchbar/393/170455/4070
which contains the following paragraph:

"Ab dem grenznahen Flughafen Salzburg bietet Eurowings neue Flüge nach London-Stansted, Birmingham und Manchester an"

that can be roughly translated as

"From the bordering Salzburg airport, Eurowings offers new flights to London-Stansted, Birmingham and Manchester."

Remains to be seen if they mean connecting through Dusseldorf or Cologne or actual new non-stop service

 

[David_itl]

Operating on Mondays and Fridays.

Eurowings will reduce HAM-MAN to 6 weekly from June. Given the amount of capacity on the route as well as the larger aircraft from Eurowings, I would say MAN got off lightly really!

And considering BHX got cut altogether!

 

[IanFarquharson]

And BHX have no one else on the route !

 

[Scottie Dog]

From 31st March Eurowings will move their operation to Terminal 2.

 

[Scottie Dog]

Flights will switch to T2 with effect from 30th April.

 

[David_itl]

a somewhat surprising pruning of frequency. Are they oblivious to having no 4 daily competition?


Dusseldorf – Manchester Reduce from 23 weekly to
15MAR20 – 21MAR20 22 weekly
22MAR20 – 28MAR20 16 weekly
