The landscape for Virgin in Manchester certainly isn't the same as it was pre-Covid. US West Coast gone. India expansion plans gone. Vegas only now being restored as a summer route. No Delta Boston....

I'd agree - have used Luton a few times over the last year even though it's far from my regular airports and on all occasions, it's been absolutely fine. One of the better ones.

I repeat my earlier comment. There is no barrier in the bilateral to any carrier of either side launching more transatlantic services from MAN. Waste all the time you want on this hypothesis but...

And by the way, the Jet2 aircraft going into LPL for S24 aren’t “yours” (meaning MAN’s). They’re Jet2’s to put wherever they believe they can achieve the best return with them.

It hasn’t “evaporated” but has reduced in size and airlines can make more money flying their aeroplanes somewhere else. If the MAN crows could look past narrow conspiracy theories about London...
