Jetgo was the airline BNE lost

Air China is back on 18 Jan for 10 weeks then is suspended for NS19 but sources say they will be back in NW 19 so looks like seasonal.

Thanks Lloyd.

Speaking of BNE, as I was driving past this afternoon around 1715, I swore I saw the livery of Air Astana taxiing to or from the international terminal. It may have been something different, but wasn’t a livery I recognised from a distance. Any ideas?

Most probably the PAE B757 . The livery of the two is very similar . Just a guess though .
