I use both airports and both have large flaws and I can't be bothered with the politics. For what it's worth the most frequent comment I hear when getting on a Flybe flight is a groan followed by 'oh...

I do love some of the waffle in the forums. Anyone who thinks a q400 is more comfortable than a bus can't have flown much on either. Flybe used to run it on the odd LGW and leave bags behind. Reason?...

Easy's average flight time is around 2hrs. The block time allocated is generous but likely reflects the chance of significant winds. It will take every minute of the allocated 2hr 50 in a q400

Those nasty late night jets have no choice but to deploy speed brakes because whoever wrote the 'noise abatement' for BFS knew little about aircraft performance. The only way to get rid of the height...

Last year I think EI sold quite a few of their seats to tour operators and consolidators. Not sure if that's still the case but if so it would certainly bring the yield down on the sun routes....

I'd rather have EI at BHD than the Harper's at BFS. Funny to watch the UTV waffle on this one. EI's cost base is actually not bad. The idea that this is the reason behind their decision is tenuous....

Seems like a lot of hassle to close a base only to re-open it 6 months later although Thomson run a summer only operation at BFS but it's 24/7 while open.

Well I'm of to paddy power with the following:
BA to stay at BHD
EI to be completely gone from BHD within 18-24 months
Lots of 'talk' about Ezy at BHD in various forms.

There's no point courting airlines to do the same old routes. All it does is split yield and ultimately cost jobs. For all the pontificating Ryanair do about cheap fares, they seldom beat what's on...

Flybe's 195's are all but gone. They won't have any jets in Belfast and very few left in their network come February. Their jet crews are all on redundancy notice so they won't be doing BHD-REU.

Senseless duplication of routes is fine for passengers in the short term but it never lasts because no airline in the current climate can sustain loss making schedules. It's a matter of who blinks...
