Hi All,
I’ve been going through the forum lately and people are giving little bits fo info such as G-**** will be based at Location X and was wondering if people could post below what charter aircraft will be based where in the Summer 2006 season, i’m very interested and what people have posted in various threads is patchy.
Are FCA basing an aircraft at Norwich next year, they have quite a few flights going from there,
Additionally please use full airport names – i’ve no idea what most are,
Many thanks,
Warren
P.S. Is it just me or has the “Post a poll with this thread” thing dissappeared from the New thread thing?

Astraeus
B737-700NG
Thomsonfly
B767-200 – May 1st Till July 28th
B757-200 – July 29th Till October 31st
I could be wrong but I was under the impression that the 762 wasn’t going to make an appearance at LBA next summer.

Well I’m not sure of regs, but this is how it currently stands at Newcastle (NCL) next year:
Thomsonfly – 2x B757, 1x B737
Thomas Cook – 2x B757
FlyJet – 1x B757
MyTravel – 1x A320
Excel Airways – 2x 737, 1x 757I think a Monarch A330 is based half week to operate the 2x weekly Orlando and 1x weekly Puerto Plata flights.
Durham Tees Valley
Thomsonfly – 1x B757 (If not, a 737-800)
excellent stuff, should see an even busier summer up here than last!!

Thomsonfly – 2x B757s/2xB767s
MyTravel – 3x A320
Monarch 3x A321 (One more A321 for the scheduled flights)
Thomas Cok x2 B757This information may be wrong so anyone more in the know correct me if it is.
Don’t forget the usual KM 320….

Monarch will have A300/320/321/330 and B757 based at MAN I believe.

thomsonfly will be basing a 757 and a 737-300 at cardiff for the summer and the 763 part based for long haul.

Astraeus
LGW 4 x 757 G-OAVB, G-OOOB, G-OPJB and 1 to be delivered
MAN 1 x 737-300 G-STRJ and 1 x 737-700 either G-STRF or RH
LBA 1 x 737-700 either G-STRF or RH
and 3 737-300s at BHX and EXT operating for Flybe (G-STRA, G-STRE, G-STRI)
G-STRB (737-300) is leaving the fleet to be converted into a freighter.
Not surprised G-STRB is going to be a freighter, went on this a/c this summer from LBA to Larnaca, very poor interior!

No worse than some of othe other aircarft on the charter scne which are just as old. Some of TOMs 762’s and MONs 757’s are hardly new.

I know to avoid olympic holidays – flyjet with the old (built 1986) 762 they have acquired things are about to get worse for them me thinks.
By: GKirk - 26th November 2005 at 21:00
Thomsonfly MME based a/c is scheduled to be a 737-800 again.

Anyone know which tour operators flyjet operate for? I’m trying to avoid them!!!
Normally do a bit of work for Olympic Holidays, that’s how I ended up having to suffer them… 😉

1 XLA B737-?00 from Tuesday to Saturday

It’s impossible to give the reg of aircraft to be based at an airport as they will switch around the bases in order to recieve maintenance e..g the BY fleet rotates around Luton for this.
By: Jon Taylor - 26th November 2005 at 18:07
