Having a wee browse for some flights on a Sunday morning and stumbled across this beauty -

Was tempted until I remembered that there's no Clubhouse at Manchester yet

This does - anecdotally - underscore the lack of supply at MAN caused by the demise of TCX, and the market which may be available to VS if it is able to move quickly enough.
The additional incremental TATL increases to MCO, BGI, LAS are welcome, but a step change in capacity is likely to be requited over the next 2-3 years (particularly as the A330-900neos are delivered) to correct the market, deliver on available organic growth and deliver for the anticipated increase connecting traffic.

Looks like it was a pricing error as the same full J fare return flight is showing as being a mere £9712.54 now - at that price I'd want the crappy MAN Escape Plus lounge to myself thank you very much!

Same price James, that was for 2 adults but yes, agree on the lounge but in all seriousness, who's gonna pay nearly £10k for 1 seat to Orlando, even with a chauffeur service
