Considering they where going for their own AOC, then said they would launch at the end of May, that was incredibly pre-mature, since an AOC application can take upto 6 months. So It’s no wonder that they are not launching this month, just give it time for all the paperwork to be done.

As far as the traffic due out for the champs league final, so far these are the ones which are confirmed.

I’m told that’s just one Liverpool FC travel company too, and considering there are 20,000 tickets for Liverpool supporters, I’d think there will be a fair few more than this in the end.

Talking about Dungeon’s Lane, this was a photo that was shot the other week at LPL from that spot:

Have you ever been to spot at the end of 06L at MAN grey? Me and few friends drove over there last month, at about 11pm… god knows why, we planned to spend the night in the pub… that soon changed!

This was the view we got:

A B767 can get around 3400NM off Liverpool’s 7500ft runway, assuming normal fuel burn and no obstacles, with PAX and baggage at 95KG.

Either a 757 or 767 could easily get from Liverpool to New York without a tech stop, so Istanbul will not be a problem. Liverpool however will not accept 747’s, as they have been known to damage the runway.

Hope that helps clear that up!

Cheers,

Dan
