"No-fly cruise" just means that it's a cruise where there's not a flight, or flights, built into the package - as opposed to a "fly-cruise" where the flights are included (as I did last month, flying...

I'm wondering if (based on no inside knowledge at all!) this is Vueling, with a Cardiff-type operation? Maybe that's why EZY have only announced one Spanish destination so far?

Looks like from today that the Eastern MAN service is being operated by a J41 that comes from (and returns to) LBA. Guess this is to free up an ATR for the LGW-NQY route which starts next week?

Agreed, I overlooked the LCY weekend opening hours situation. In the past CFE used to do a lot of charters out of Scotland at the weekends, but I think this changed when they closed a base up there.
