Staff from bmibaby were yesterday doing promotional photos in front of Terminal 1 at BHX. Official announcement very soon then? We already know who will be handling them (Aviance) and that there will be around 5 737s based at Brum. Rumour has it that they would fly over a dozen routes from here.

Competition? MyTravel Lite of course - but they only have 3 dedicated A320s. Ryanair have recently pulled out of BHX in protest at the "surprise" landing fee hike (which they always knew would happen after 2 years) and have only 2 rtn DUB flights/day.

BHX and the West Mids must have a bigger catchment area than EMA.

Go on, baby!
