I agree,
Bmi does not suit Belfast City simply because of the Airports rugged regional set up. Belfast International has everything and more that an Airline like Bmi need to run effectively. This diverting flights and cancelling flights is not on just beause you operate from one Airport when you can operate from a better Airport up the road.
Belfast City is poor due to the following reasons
Runway is just a bit on the small size. .Runway is in great need of repair last cover up was during the 60's. .Only one runway in a very awkward position. .No Cat III. .No room for terminal or runway expansion (planning restrictions). .Poor Management. .Over crwoded as whitnessed during Christmas (Whos incharge of that conveyor belt!)
If I was Sir Micheal I would back up my operation at the City move back up to the International and be able to say to TBI I have proved a point now give me lower landing charges as they would very quickly agree to.
Come on guys before its to late!!!
