I don't know where you are in the UK, Legallooptheloop, but I wouldn't take the use of the term "Tool" too personally. It's often used in friendly banter in Northern Ireland and you would recognise...

Exactly, for me, going to Belfast centre and flying from LHR1, BHD is also more convenient, but many using BHD/BFS will not be travelling to/from Belfast.

I've just had a look at the BHD to LHR timetable for July and November on the BA website. In July, they appear to be alternating - one flight operated by BA and the next by bmi throughout the day. By...

Haven't a clue, True Blue. As I said, it was a sudden thought that is probably nonsense and I can see exactly where you're coming from. It was just the suggestion that the much vaunted new airline...
