Stavanger? Is that football related?

Stavanger? Is that football related?

I guess it could be....it's a charter in addition to the Bergen scheduled flight.

I understand that Wideroe have been having problems with their new Embraer. They also plan to use one of them on behalf of Finnair from Helsinki to Vienna and Berlin, until 6 May.

Interesting article in current "Airliner World" on the workings of Wideroe .

I think some positive news that Wideroe are happy with their Liverpool route so far . The schedule is bookable to mid May 19, then there is a gap before the flights are available to book again from mid August 19 . This corresponds with football related passengers who particularly use this route.

It's good to hear the route is doing well. Flights on sale beyond March and into May goes beyond the standard switch over between the winter and summer schedule so it seems very positive.

Yes it does, it looks like Wideroe have found an untapped niche.

I seem to recall that the CEO at the time of the launch mentioned they would look at other Norwegian links to Liverpool too, so we will have to see what develops . They did operate a Stavanger charter quite recently .

Great for Wideroe that LPL is going so well!

 

[Silvercity]

Wideroe have a second flight in today at 1300 from Stavanger WF 7548.

 

[Silvercity]

Hopefully they might look to add Stavanger as their next route. They have run Liverpool to Stavanger a few times

 

[Jerry]

It would be a good route for LPL to have!

The ERJ 190 operated the Bergen service today as usual and the Stavanger was a Q400.
