Globespan Holidays services from Birmingham, Exeter, Newcastle, Manchester, Glasgow and Gatwick will also be changing to be either operated by GSM or Zoom aircraft next summer

Is Edinburgh included in that? YYZ-EDI is currently operated by Air Transat, but could GSM be planning to take over the route themselves with a 757 next summer?

Globespan will no longer use Air Transat as their main agent for their UK-Canadian routes from October 2006. Tour Operator Canadian Affair has taken over Air Transat as their main supplier of flights to the UK. They Canadian Affair currently use Thomas Cook Airlines and My Travel Airlines Aircraft

So now Globespan will now be offering seats on a code-sharing basis on the weekly flights from Belfast Int’l, which is currently operated by Zoom. Zoom will also be code sharing on the newly announced Liverpool – New York Route.

Now i hope that makes sence.

Their is no code-share on the NYC route, check out www.flyzoom.com. What would be the point on that considering Zoom don’t fly to either EWR or Liverpool? The only routes with a code share will be the Toronto routes.

I’m not sure if they have loaded all code-share flights onto the GSM site as it’s a bit odd just code-sharing on Toronto flights, plus Gatwick-Ottawa is book able on the GSM site but none of their other Canadian routes from Gatwick and Glasgow to places like Calgary, Halifax, Ottawa and Vancouver are book able.

Odd, Toronto flights booked via Globespan have always been Air Transat operated as they are principle booking agent for non tour operator bookings (i.e.not in a package). Given the TS code of flights I dont think it has changed.

Thats not a new flight, its just a code-share on the existing Zoom flights from Belfast, they are code-sharing on all UK-Toronto flights.

I dont like double drop flights

I would be pretty pissed off if I had booked a direct flight from Glasgow to Orlando and you get told its via Belfast. They changed the leg room on flights after people had paid for business class seats, seems they are quite pissed off in the reviews I have read on the net.

I swear this airline just pull city names out of a hat and operate flights between them.

A bit like a certain loco with a harp on the tail!
