Phil,

Unfortuently there are no 'long-hauls' from ACE (That I know of). You will see Martinair MD-11's, Air Atlanta 747's and ArkeFly 767's in the summer though!

I think they only have 1 terminal but I can't be sure.

It would not really be practical to schedule a long haul operation in a big jet out of ACE as the weather/runway conditions can sometimes limit departures in A320's and even 757's. Getting a big jet out with a light fuel load is not a problem but a full pax load and long haul fuel would suffer too often from performance limitations to be viable.

He thought Phil2 said Biz jets, instead of Big Jets.
