Interesting to see extra flights for the MAN/LGW a/c fleet, surely this will result in further reshuffle of the existing routes and a/c.

Now wouldn't this be a good route for the new A330's [:?]

[:?] now strangely enough, can't seem to find an option for Upper on the VH site, so am I doing something wrong, or is another recent thread coming back into play [:w]

Would be good to see the B744 on this, but the (rumoured) two class A330 sounds favourite. Only seems fair to give them a weekly BGI to go with MCO...... Anybody any idea of the timings??

This is good news. We have gone back to CO this year as they were a good bit cheaper than VS and just as good, but the last 3 years have been really good flying VS out of Glasgow so would happily go back with them.

Not aware of the fleet situation but the VS GLA flights could have started before 2007 with the demand.

Get's a mention on VS staff site apparently, though no mention of equipment to operate it!!!!

Looks to be the 747 and there is special offer about to come out!
Depart 10, 11, 15, 16, 17 June to come back on 24, 25, 29, 30 June and 1July
All travel must be completed by 2nd July.

Fare is 441 including tax with a 15 surcharge for travel on Fri/Sat/Sun.
I doubt this is on the VS Website yet so v-flyers get booking early!

I can sell at 476 inc tax for those dates if people want to book through me before it goes live! (Ticketing charges, sorry)
