Wrt to UA it's interesting that they seem very committed to only serving 2 UK airports, but these announcements I think put them up to 5 airports served in each of Spain and Italy - and 4 in Potrugal, a small country of 10million. One higher in Spain and Portugal: Spain - Madrid, Barcelona, Palma, ...

Ryanair UK only needs to be involved for domestic or non-EU flying. A base consisting of flights to EU destinations only can be done on the Irish AOC (or indeed Buzz or Malta Air if FR wanted). PIK is an example

BDL has regained Aer Lingus this year.

Historically PVD has been served by SATA in the past as well

Plus reading an old article online, Ethiopians JFK and Newark flights stop both directions at Lome in Africa. Just thinking/ hoping Ethiopian may have realised the potential for routing these daily services through GLA ( not EDI given how much competition is already there). That would be epic news....

Unless some are away based, that means there’s 2 aircraft required on 4 days and 0 on 3. Very odd schedule as it stands. Not just PIK being operated in this manner - Ryanair's Zagreb base is only operating Fri-Mon this Winter as well (though they will be served by away based aircraft Tue-Thu) https...

I'm sure EK interline with JetBlue

Perhaps TUI will opt to fly from both airports They'd have to renegotiate with MLB first - "Under TUI's seven-year agreement with the Melbourne airport, Orlando Melbourne International Airport will be the only Florida airport other than Miami International Airport that TUI can fly into from 2022 to...

AF will just transfer any spare Orly slots to Transavia for European or North African short haul service (barring any forced divestures due to COVID relief funding). For Easyjet, Vueling etc, Orly slots will probably remain rather sought after. (I won't say valuable as I don't think they are ever tr...

Fair enough if that is your suggestion, and if TUI do that sort of operation to some extent in Belgium. However the predominant way TUI serve their Belgian regional airports is with nightstopping aircraft at the regional airports.

No TUI bases in ABZ and EDI, leaving GLA in situ with perhaps much more non based flying covering BFS too. Something I have mooted for years as it would concentrate operations in one airport serving many others. Just like TUI Germany and Belgium already do. Just looking into the Belgian operations....
