    Titan will work for just about any one! Apparently! they can have a crew and an aircraft if its available on its way to a destination with in 2 hours of a call been made.

    I would have thought BMI would only have to fork out for the chartering of the aircraft, crewing costs, handling fees etc, and make there profit from seat sales, exits, excess and other charges.

    On another note didn’t know Titans 757s were ETOPS rated as it seems ZOOM are useing one to fly to JFK at the moment.

    Love the Finnair 752! Has to be one of the best looking 757 liverys in Europe! Had the Pleasure of boarding them a few times at NCL over the summer! Gourgous on the inside!

    Nice report there.

    When it comes to technical problems with an aircraft at a gate as a PSA i never tell the passenger what the exact problem is as it is simpley nothing to do with me its not what i get payed to do, im just there to board them and take care of the passengers needs. In my experience telling a passenger the exact problem causes more harm than good!

    Why was their new year ruined because of a delayed flight? How delayed?

    I used to get bothered about things like that aswell! It soon wears off!

    Some sort of issue with Jet2s 757s i belive, we got told on going techincal problems with in the fleet, which i haven’t looked into was more interested in getting the pax sorted. Allot of the pax had plans that wern’t going to come to much if they were delayed. Ive since found out that the flight got out earlyer that the anticpated delay which is good.

    Im not bothered normally about telling pax about delays did it many a time during the summer with various airlines its just the time of year for the delay that i dont like but its out of my hands.

    NCL has had its ups and downs this year.

    The major highlight has been Emirates launching a once a day service to Dubai, which has been fantastic not just for NCL but for the whole North East. Im happy to report that the service is selling well and is proving very popular with passengers travelling on the Asia and Austraila! Rumours are going around that they are going to be code sharing with CO to run a service to JFK.

    Jet2.com has made its mark on NCL nicely offering a good range of services to Holiday locations over the summer aswell as citys such as Krakow. We had 2 757s and 2 737s based at the peak of the summer. For the winter they have launched several flights to the Canaries which have sold nicely. Looks like they have dropped a few routes for next summer, but i think this is all part of Jet2.coms consolodation across the entire network.

    Next Summer we have for the first time Thomson fly Long haul flights to Orlando, Cancun and Puerto Plata ontop of the Monarch flights which is fantastic for the airport and the region.

    Hopefully next year we will get a dedicated flight to the United states with hopefully one of the American carriers. Rumours are still about that Jet2.com will launch a service to New York useing a 767 once they arrive.

    Great set of shots mate! Love the BD 319 and of course the EK!
