Enjoy it all mate….And especially the A380 flight, and the american low cost flights. I really want to fly airlines such as frontier, virgin america, southwest and jetblue. But i have to wait a few years yet!

Again, have a fantastic time, and bring us back some of your finest moments on your circumnavigation!

Cheers Si!

The 757 shot was taken through a window, and with the light reflecting of it blah blah blah, it caused a reflection! Annoying isnt it, as that was the best image i have of aircraft there!

Thanks the rest of you for your comments…

Is this just from the normal road ? What size of lens did you need ?

I used a Tamron 55-200mm lense, and yes they are from the 26L end, and from the road, i just climbed the hedges on the otherside…:dev2:

I agree with Andrew. I think that Aer Arran will now pose a very large threat to BE. It would be nice to see BE start GWY-SOU/LGW/NWI/EXT, and maybe some from SNN! But then they would annoy FR who would start to suew them for no reason

Who knows…..

I agree with Bmi-star, easyJet are by far one of, if not, the best LCC in Europe. Infact i feel they are better than some normal airlines. Of all the flights ive flown(not many i know), i was plesently suprised when i flew easy. People make out its hell flying them. But if you acctually give them a chance they are rather good. They dont bombard you with things to buy like ryanair. They just inform you that they are coming around with the snack or duty free trolly. And the leg room isnt at all too bad. I consider myself rather tall, and i found sitting in there seats rather comforatble. And most of all, people say there service is crap, i found there whole crew from Check in to arrival to be really friendly.

I think the only thing that has given easyJet this negative image is the TV show airline, that was based around them. It allways seems to show bad bits with angry customers, raging at there poor desk employees. The reason there raging, “There was a crash on the M25.”, well thats not easyJet’s problem. That is your own, it is your own resposibility to get to the airport in time. It really does tick me off that people insist on arriving at the airport too late for there flight, then they get caught in traffic. Then when they get to the airport they take it out on the employees. But anyway i seem to be veering away from the thread here. I feel that all those easyJet haters are really, really rather stupid. You have a choice. Pay roughly £60 for a return flight to Madrid, inc one hold and one cabin bag, with easyJet, then you buy a sandwich at smiths or something for £3. or pay roughly £100 for the same flight, inc hold bags of Xkg and one cabin bag, plus a complimentary sandwich and drink. Now im not sure about you, but for around 10 kg more luggage, a sandwich and a drink; £40 does seem to be a large amount for that.

You might Land at Manston Airport , Bournemouth Airport will they use Manchester or maybe Brize Norton :rolleyes:

James

Long Haul flights in/out of LHR are supposidly going into BHX. EK and BA have “booked” permissions to use there on the selected dates. – This info is from a friend

With regards to STN/LGW flights, i think these flights may divert to LTN. Especially the EZY ones. Although ramp space may be limited.

James, unfortunally i, personally, dont think that much will be diverted to MSE. The ramp can only handle 2 A320s at a time, as im sure you are aware. And the terminal building can only accomadate 300-400 pax at anyone time. I can however see the Oasis HK flights divert to MSE, as they said last year they will use MSE as there divert airport.

Im suprised the EZY announcement wasnt today, to be honest. Are they not ment to go on sale tommorrow. Oh well i guess we will soon know! As for there new destinations. Not giving any clues to where they are, but if you hover over various cities that GB serve and EZY dont, you got the little text icon show up, indicating that something is to be writen at these places on the routemap. It happens at, Sharm el Sheik, Hurgarda, Malta, Paphos, Larnaca, Antalaya, Heraklion, Tunis and Skiathos(?) i beleive. I am deply upset that it is not visible over Gibraltar, i think EZY would do great there.

As for our year at LGW. Its been rather good, Sterling increase in flights, Norweign Air Shuttle services begin, Oman Air daily flight to Muscat begin. Wizzair services are set to begin at the end of January to Katowice. This year has also seen the start of Zoom UK, with routes to Bermuda and JFK, and they are set to expand to San Diego and Fort Laudale during the summer. Also, rumored that next year LGW is going to be getting 2 weekly Malaysian Airline flights, during the Summer, Presumable to Kuala Lumpur. And Aegean Airlines have supposidly applied for slots.

Unfortunally, due to open skies, AA, NW, CO, US, DL. Have all attempted to aquire slots at LHR and have succedded. They are moving most of there services over to LHR, leaving only the flights for Leasure back at Gatwick.

So the last 12 months and upcoming 12 months have/are to be very interesting at LGW. In just 6 months time it will be a completely different place.

Best Regards and Happy new year
