Birmingham Tubes the down going is? (rearrange into a well known phrase or saying)

[LGS6753]

What future (in the short-term) for Birmingham?

MyTravelLite reducing operations

FlyBlu delayed start

Ryanair off to NEMA

Duo going bust (sadly)

Thomsonfly competing at COV.

All these events are going to come as a bit of a shock to the rather complacent management at BHX. Agreed, it's got a long-term future, but this year's going to look a bit sick, innit?

[Avman]

"complacent management" is exactly it. They are still living in the past.

Air Malta are only flights that should have been operated by Azzurra as they are at Manchester, just a PR exercise with the expansion of EEC
