The latest CAA stats from June give a load factor of 74% (36 seats) to STN, and May load factor was just 67% (33 seats) which I certainly wouldn't classify as 'packed'. Even with double daily flights...

If the route was sustainable, then a) why did Ryanair pull out in the first place, and b) when Ryanair did axe it's service, why didn't other airlines flock to replace it? The fact that the only way...

Passenger numbers clearly indicate that Derry Airport is being kept open for a few whinging locals. The fact that the airport cannot even sustain links to London without the need for a PSO shows that...

The entire population of NI is within two hours of BHD/BFS, so they serve the nation as a whole.

It is completely unreasonable to operate a loss-making airport just to keep a few locals happy. If...

A route is a route - I'm sure LDY management would be ecstatic if they were able to land a seasonal holiday route. Plus, do people in the North West not go on holiday? If you want to get picky, I...

BFS serves 59 destinations and BHD serves 23 destinations, 12 of which are served from both airports. That gives 70 destinations from Belfast, plus hundreds more via LHR and AMS.

A vital link would be classified as a route that connects Derry to a major hub with worldwide connections. A x2 weekly flight to Liverpool and x5 weekly flight to Glasgow doesn't quite cut it. Even...

If the airport had multiple daily flights to several UK cities and a connection to an alliance hub, it would be deemed viable. 20 flights a week to three destinations is pathetic, and is a bigger...

LDY-STN Pax Numbers

CAA May stats are out - during their first month of operations, BMI Regional carried 3,809 passengers on LDY-STN. That equates to 34 passengers per flight, or a 69.4% load factor. For anyone that's...

People's Viennaline E170 OE-LMK was flying the route earlier this week, and today it's a Chalair ATR 42-300 F-GVZJ. Is this due to a lack of BMI Regional aircraft?

Well given that FR announced their BFS-LGW route in the middle of January last year, I don't find it unreasonable to announce the new London route at the start of February, especially given that many...

I can't see any other airlines wanting to operate to Derry, especially if there needs to be aircraft based at LDY. The question is, will Flybe fly to Stansted, Gatwick, Southend or City - can't see...
