In the news today.

Jet Airways has stated that it is looking to start flights to another U.K. city, with Manchester and Birmingham as options.

I feel MAN may be more likely however, as the MAN-BOM market is larger than BHX (BOM being Jet’s main hub), MAN is the divert alternative in the U.K. and there is the Virgin partnership to exploit also.

Secondly, IndiGo has applied to serve LGW/MAN/BHX in the U.K from Oct 2018, but BHX May get that one if they are serious about taking over Air India’s long haul network. (Of course, by applying for the 3 U.K. airports they may have the intention to start all 3?)
