I'm in the process of updating the airport history section on the main Air Humberside site. Could anyone please tell me when Air UK ceased serving Edinburgh and Norwich from HUY. From my timetable collection I know they were served in Winter 1993/94 but had been dropped by Summer 1995
Thanks

I certainly know EDI wasnt served in 1995, though I had thought NWI (and MME?) were still part of the network much like NWI is now with T3?

MME was the stop-over in the ABZ service until it was dropped by Air/KLM UK. It had been just once daily but seems to have been boosted to twice daily when HUY-EDI-ABZ ended. However NWI had gone by Summer 1995

The full NWI/HUY/EDI service depended on UK632, which departed NWI at 18.25, HUY at 19.20 and arrived EDI at 20.25. This certainly ran until 26th March 1994, but is not showing in the timetable from 23rd October 1994. I do not have a timetable for summer 1994.
The situation is confused by the fact that there continued to be a one-way service from EDI to HUY and from HUY to NWI. This was UK 601 which departed Aberdeen at 06.55 and Edinburgh at 07.55 , arriving Humberside at 09.10. It eventually arrived Norwich at 10.05.
UK 601 finally ceased on 29th March 1997. These one-way flights were not promoted in the timetable and can only be found by referring to departures from Aberdeen.

Thank you. So as far as the public were concerned EDI/NWI ceased after Summer 1994
A bit weird that HUY-EDI ran in the evening with a morning return. I would have thought Air UK would have done better with HUY-EDI in the morning and an evening return to allow day trips?
