BACX have become a handling agent for other airlines at BRS as well as looking after their own flights and seem to be doing quite well out of it. BRS as a base for BACX is actually doing well at the moment. It's a shame NCL had to be withdrawn. If there had been a spare ERJ available BACX would have continued to operate the route.

Twin Aisle - CWL/BRU was loss making for some time and the only route profitable was CDG. As the base was so small it's probably more of a cost issue than a revenue problem.
BRS routes are doing well for BACX and I guess expansion wouldn't be ruled out. I think that there is a market for both EZY and BA to operate against each other with the different markets they attract.

It's good to see the start of CO on EWR, although I would have preferred to see AA to JFK.
