Primera

Really not looking good for BHX. As I stated in a previous post, this was a risky venture from the outset and even more risky to hang your long haul and airport growth ambitions on.....if Primera doesn't happen (for whatever reason but especially if its poor sales), kiss goodbye to any new long haul operations from BHX for the foreseeable as well as any meaningful growth in pax figures in 2018.

I really do hope all works out for all concerned but am increasingly worried that this is an airline with no real plan for growth, they just liked the sound of the idea of doing long haul flights across the pond.

The other more worrying thing is that it looks like STN is selling far better than BHX hence the current push back of launch dates and routes ex - BHX.
