I hope the airport pushes for the airline to have interlining onto onward destinations and code sharing too.

It appears here, that once again as enthusiasts, exciting information has been 'ferreted out' and declared by us well ahead of official announcements.
Probably, and quite correctly one section of Czech Airlines has been ensuring that information is entered and tested on the web before the public will be looking for it following an announcement, while the PR departments are still preparing their 'official' announcements - unaware that the sections of the web are already 'buzzing' with the information.
I think a little patience is required from us for a while, to allow the Airline and Airport to make their announcements at what they consider to be the right time, and with the details correct, to make the greatest impact - rather than us get worked-up that a quite possibly unintentional 'leak' has been followed by official silence.
Let's just give the comerical companies concerned some breathing space to make announcements at a time and place of their choosing to make maximum impact. The day following the debacle (well to us anyway) of the Ryanair press conference's incorrect announcements can barely be considered the 'best time'.
Please, some restraint on this topic and no more conjecture - we need to leave the Companies concerned space to work to their own timetable of information release.
fact: today flight details are showing on the Czech Airlines booking site as available for booking
fact: the public have yet to be informed by either airline or airport
conjecture: anything else

However, the information wasn't mysteriously 'ferreted out' (whatever that means) or gleaned illegally it was a headline item on a major Airline News site - Airline Route. If airlines or airports don't understand that the Internet allows anyone access to view whatever is placed on it then I'm not sure I'd trust them with flying me anywhere. If it was a company leak of information picked up by that news organisation then really the company only has itself to blame. Furthermore maybe Airports and Airlines are no longer in control of their own information and should act as such - for example, when Michael Jackson died it was tweeted/facebooked around the world long before the news media or official organisations could use that info. Maybe we shouldn't subscribe to the idea that organisations have the right to bend, colour, adjust, sex-up, sex-down, or even decide when info is released, to suit their own agenda. But there again, I'm a maverick |

Ah, but 'Maverick' you did not state your source, so leaving others without knowledge of the reliability, or otherwise, of the information. The quoted sources provided by others were 'Twitter Feed' and Czech Airlines booking engine - so one dubious and one with authority. Yes we do ferret (seek) out information relating to LJLA from a myriad of unconnected places. Some delight in being the first to 'break' new information, before it is official, including yourself.
Wait now and see what tomorrow brings.

Yes, again fair comment and yes I should have quoted the source but I was only qualifying the initial posting by adding times and flight numbers to the initial poster's info. |

I did in truth note the fact that the information came from another website, as is the custom on the Internet. No embarrassment to the Airport was intended, but this is the age of instant information as Maverick has noted. As soon as a destination is listed on an airline's website, there do appear to be individuals who have the ability to extract that information. We should be able to embrace that ability and should not seek to muzzle it, that is the whole idea of the Internet. When faced with the drivel recently issued by Ryanair under the pretext of being a press release, the ability to check and expose such inaccuracies should be applauded. And yes, I do read The Guardian.

Me thinks the PR dept of Czech Airlines and LPL are not in tandem with the Sales dept of Czech.
I Look forward to the official announcement of this service.

OK754 Depart Prague Sundays 11.10 arrive LPL 13.25
OK755 depart LPL 15.30 and 14.10
Commencement date given as June 4th.
So presumably "officially" announced

Seems strange that its in Business Traveller but both the Airline and LPL Airport have still not issued a press release, but good to hear anyway.
In the Czech Airlines booking engine its showing Mondays and Fridays from mid may.

Was a source quote in the announcement or was it just 'picked-up' from posting on NWAN Forum or the other sources mentioned here?
There is still no announcement on Czech Airlines web-site!
