Rumours are flying hot around LBA about the introduction of BMIBaby flights. I have heard they are looking at starting in November. The introduction of Fokker100 aircraft for this summer, it would appear, is to test the market using larger aircraft.

I have heard that six to eight aircraft will operate from LBA by next summer. At a guess though, many of their flights will be to destinations already opperated by their BMI Regional and mainline ie: CDG, EDI, ORK, JER. I would guess at LHR and GLA would stay with the main company.

The new venture would probaby introduce destinations such as AGP, PMI, IBZ for summer 05.

I think the likelyhood of any propper new destinations from LBA to places such as Germany are more likely to come from JET2 who appear in a much better place to start up new routes, given their apparent success.
