Im just interested in peoples thoughts on the new name for doncaster finingley airport which will commence commercial operations in summer 2005. The airport site (formerly RAF Finningley) is owned by Peel Airports who also own Liverpool John Lennon Airport. from what I have heard the decision to name the airport 'Robin Hood Airport' was made by Peel and not by the public.
Thomsonfly and Britannia Airways (TUI UK) have announced they will be flying from the airport, 1 Britannia 757 will be based there and 4 Thomsonfly 737's.
I would also be interested in knowing how and if this is going to affect other airports like (EMA) East Midlands and (LBA) Leeds Bradford. I hope Britannia dont reduce their services from LBA!!
Also does anyone no of any new airlines starting from LBA, ive heard rumours about VLM starting to london city and heard rumours on the net awhile ago abut a jet2 747 !?!
More info can be found on the airliners.net forums if you want to look into it more, just thought people who dont have access to the airliners.net forums to post things(like me) might be interested in posting a message here, but knowing my luck no one in here will of heard about any of this and wont have a clue about what im on about, anyway ill see what happens....... !
There must be someone heard of LBA (EGNM) Leeds Bradford out there, just say anything abuot that lol if you dont know what im on about!!!!!! cheers.
