Eastern Wiseguy, Jet 2 on BFS-ORK will be one to watch. Aldergrove being a new destination I am sure the lure of incentives came into play? Did I not see on an earlier thread that the Jet 2 aircraft would otherwise have been parked up at BFS until later in the morning waiting for the new BOH flight to depart? A quick rotation to Cork fills the gap. As for the single daily frequency, well if you had business in Belfast and fly up and decided to take the train back down south again you would easily be in Dublin again around teatime and all going well should be back in Cork again by late evening. Not really an ideal situation but flying one way on the Jet 2 and taking train/bus in the opposite direction might still be cheaper than RE if booked at short notice?
