TT releases summer schedule - No NTL?

Just checking TT's website for a MEL-NTL flight and saw that they've released the new schedule from 25 October up to late February 09.

Nothing much seems to have changed except that TT have switched to 3 digit flight numbers instead of 4 digits (changed from TT 7xxx to TT xxx, I think) and that the ASP flights look to be switching from Tu-Th-Sa to Mo-We-Sa.

One major thing I noted was the absence of NTL in the new schedule. This could be for one of 3 things I can think of:

1. There's just a delay in updating the new schedule.
2. TT is pulling out of NTL.
3. NTL will be TT's second hub, with a more comprehensive schedule to follow.

I think it's much more likely 1 or 3 than 2, but who knows. Thoughts?

ROK seems to have suffered a similar fate. Maybe it is a work in progress still?

Even better than the new Jetstar Pacific (Vietnam)

Methinks something got lost in translation

Cheap flights - Jetstar Vietnam

At the TT airlines website - the 3rd plane that flashes up on the screen is a DC3!

I think they are using that as the basis for their comparison with their modern, up-to-date MD82's. (Someone should tell them that AA has plenty of MD80s going cheap.)

More to the point, what's the 737 doing in their promo? Maybe if you've seen one jet, you've seen 'em all

Re: TT releases summer schedule - No NTL?

Rockhampton has been added to the search engine, to 3 weekly from 4 existing weekly. So mabye Darwin is the next to come thenI really would have thought an increase in Alice Springs as I was on a flight 1month back and there was only 9 seats left, also told by friends that they have been on this flight and its sold out! As its just TT/QF on this route, and QF charges crazy prices, you would think TT could up the price a little and do OK out of the Alice
