    London Heathrow: Infrastructure & Construction Updates

    or how about the government actually thinks about growth and fully backs the long needed and wholly privately funded expansion of LHR? is that too radical thinking compared to imposing state restrictions on where people can fly to?

    Birmingham: Saudia Flight Status, Hub News & Discussion

    that's a shame. was asking SV to reroute you from MAN/LHR/LGW not something you might have considered?

    Birmingham: Saudia Flight Status, Hub News & Discussion

    because all the selling classes are zeroed out. for the moment SV is not selling anything on these flights - so it's not clear whether they would actually operate.

    Birmingham: General Airport Discussion & Updates

    If your only chance of success is ensuring a competitor is prevented from expanding, then that is not a good business. Airlines fly where they feel there is a market. There clearly is demand at LHR since the airport constantly runs at 99%. There is spare capacity already at other regional...

    Random Stuff!!

    it is just a transponder on a stationary aircraft and some GPS artifacts/accuracy. the aircraft likely never moved at all.

    EasyJet: News, Fleet Updates & Global Discussion

    You just have to look at their results last year and this year so far. This is not a currently profitable company - and this pre dates any fuel price increases (I don’t know what their hedging position is or whether they have been impacted in 1H 2026). The routes changes are clearly an attempt...

    EasyJet: News, Fleet Updates & Global Discussion

    castlelake own an aircraft leasing finance arm. easyjet own about 50% of their fleet and have a valuable position in new aircraft orders. no one is buying an lcc based on the traditional revenue from passengers.

    Manchester: Airport Transformation Programme

    what a bizarre post. the user has taken their time to give their opinion. why should they have to say something nice just because you love the airport? if you are that bothered, then you can reply with whatever things you think are done right based on your experience. as just another user...

    Manchester: Aer Lingus Flight Status, Hub News & Discussion

    they don't "own" the routes so i am not sure what you mean by allowing another airline to take them? others can already compete if they wish. in fact others already do.

    Manchester: Aer Lingus Flight Status, Hub News & Discussion

    it seems the quote from the EI ceo is that it is underperforming which is obviously not the same thing. some people have confused that with not profitable, but those two things are not the same. however, it isn't the case that just because a business unit is profitable it has a right to...

    Manchester: Aer Lingus Flight Status, Hub News & Discussion

    nothing to do with BA. as you note it is owned by IAG and they will decide what to do. whether EI can make a profit for longhaul from MAN is an open question really.

    Birmingham: Upcoming Flights & Passenger Travel Plans

    Also Jet2 are responsible for your extra costs getting to and from MAN, regardless of the notice period or the cancellation reason. So do claim them back from the airline.

    8m. what proportion of the travellers on any particular day that represents i don't know, but my experience is still a small minority tbh as you can see how many people head to the GE kiosks as opposed to other lines. Also as most regular UK travellers who go to the US have GE anyway now, the...
