    Doesn't it make more sense to increase BEG to 14 first?

      And JU is still using the ATR on the route on some days, such as today.

      Do they send the ATR on days when there are limited connections in one direction?

      Not always. Tomorrow is almost identical as today in terms of connections, yet tomorrow is scheduled for the A319.

    Seems like BEG will roar in June:

    1. SU going six weekly on A333
    2. TK keeping the A333 on Wednesdays
    3. JU launching ROV and resuming LED and KRR
    4. Aegean resumes BEG tonight
    5. Luxair launches BEG tomorrow

    I don't know if I missed something?

      Forgot about that one, I just checked their website and seems like lowest fares are already gone. Good for them. I wonder if they might add another destination. Ural was considering a big BEG expansion but nothing will come out of it.

      Vueling is scheduled, flights are on sale already. They even added normal times, for example their June flights depart from BCN at 07.20.
      I think they realized that they can't compete with JU and W6 with middle of the night flights.

    Must be strong cargo demand to justify the upgrade, the economics of widebody on short haul doesn't make sense vs more frequencies

      Yes but when you have 200+ narrowbody aircraft, financially it makes more sense to deploy 2 A321 than 1 A330 unless you have large cargo demand to make up for the difference or operating costs

      For Turkish it does. Theyve been doing it for years, dispatching widebodies to ATH, OTP, TXL/BER, perhaps also BUD, VIE, ZRH...

    It's a shame that the famous TK short-haul service has been gutted so badly. (I fly them often between MXP and BEG.) No service whatsoever in Economy (except a glass of water) and significantly reduced service in Business (Economy-style main courses and a very poor selection of wine).

      I flew them yesterday morning and nothing was served in Economy on BEG-IST. Just a small pack of water.

    I like seeing A330 in Belgrade. Air Serbia, Aeroflot and now Turkish with scheduled flights.
