Here we go again!

Is it animal, vegetable or mineral?

 

[hishaq96]

Norwegian?

 

[davecleaver777]

Hainan?

 

[GliderPilot]

My guesses were both Hainan and Norweigan also but i very much doubt myself.

 

[davecleaver777]

Cobalt with a change of heart ?

 

[whateverg]

My guess would be icelandair

 

[BHX492]

I’m going with Uzbekistan and Norwegian

 

[BHX492]

Or American and aegean

 

[Ianbutty]

Tajik to Dushanbe?

Much as I would love to see Icelandair have a change of heart, I think that the logistics would not work. They will have had a couple of months with bookings unavailable from BHX (other than terrible timings with FlyBe via GLA).

Or American

Likewise, for American. They have been slashing their UK services from outside of London, so unless (as a very very outside chance) they have reviewed the route following United's withdrawal and decided to give it another go, I don't see that happening.
I would love to be proven wrong, but think most likely Uzbekistan and possibly a China service.

Not that I'm saying it is likely to happen, but American have recently been changing tact - withdrawing somewhat from New York and focusing their hub activity more at Chicago and Philadelphia. A return from American wouldn't necessarily mean JFK, but could mean Chicago/Philadelphia. As I say though I think American is unlikely to make a return.

but think most likely Uzbekistan and possibly a China service.

Thinking the same thing. Just hope the latter is a scheduled service and not another short charter series - though even that would be better than nothing.

 

[IanFarquharson]

Not that exciting !!

 

[mullion]

I think Norwegian and Vueling as I know last years slots have been retained at Manchester

That region is seeking to reconnect to the rest of the world. BHX was their alternative to London previously. Who would have thought Tashkent is likely to return.

However...happy to be wrong.

I think the clue is in 'long lost' which surely rules out any return of recent pull outs, American or Icelandair for example.

My money is on Silver City Airways always loved seeing their HP Hermes....
