Capetown now seems to be a short series of flights, rather than a new scheduled service.

Two services in Jan and one in Feb, sadly.

That is a shame, but hopefully may develop next winter if successful.
 
Looks like ASL airlines has been confirmed for a 2018 return already, with flights bookable via the Olympic site.

Further to the above, note that Eastern Airways will take on the FlyBe franchise schedule MAN-GLA wef 01.09.2017. Meanwhile, Loganair will remain on the same route in their own right. Sounds like a recipe for heavy losses all-round to me (especially with direct Manchester Airport to Glasgow Central trains in the mix as well). But that's the way it is. Until someone blinks, anyway. Let's hope common sense prevails before we end up losing both carriers off what is already a thin, challenging route.

The Ryanair MAN-KBP schedule is now bookable at 3x weekly on the website. Typical introductory fare starts from around £72 return. No sign of Air Ukraine International pitching in against them at this stage.

Thanks Ethan.

Just a couple of points:

Aren't Ryanair also starting FRA?

I don't think we can include MAN-Cambridge if seats are not bookable for that sector. Is that the case or have I misread something?

I believe Ryanair started Manchester-Frankfurt Am Main in September.

I'm not sure about the Cambridge sector - it shows as a route on the Wikipedia page (as much as that means ;)) but I will take a look to see if it's bookable anywhere.

Many thanks Ethan. It's interesting how often TCX appear on that list with a few each from TUI and Jet2.

Apart from the Genoa route, the notable absentees are easyjet and Ryanair. Are we any nearer official announcements about their anticipated expansion or is more patience required?

Jennyjet, An upgrade to my law degree, have now been upgraded to a Masters in Laws from Birmingham University to add to my Doctor of Jurisprudence as awarded by Harvard Law School. I am somewhat humbled, imposter syndrome in play here!
9 trips in 9 days done 70 miles walked and over 23-00 photos taken with a large number taken at 20mph or above. Heavy rain on 1 day only
5 trips done and 45 miles walked,. Also the RAF has had 4 F35B Lightning follow me yesterday and today....
My plans got altered slightly as one of the minibus companies had to cancel 3 trips and refunded me but will be getting nice discount when I rebook them.
wondering why on my "holidays" I choose to get up 2 hours earlier than when going to work. 6 trips in 6 days soon coming up with 3 more days to sort out
All ready for my holiday to Iceland on Sunday! Flying with TUI for the first time.
