BHX News

Has there been any news for months? What is happening to Birmingham Airport? There have been rumours of DL,NW and several european airlines but none have come to fruision. BMIBaby are supposed to be basing a further 737 at Brum from January (then 2 more in summer) their leaving any new route marketing a little late it is almost November. Typical of BHX and based airlines most of the listed failures were through poor marketing,poor slot allocation or pure madness like BACON BHX-BHD????!!!

BHX needs new routes most have already reached saturation eg:ABZ!!!!!(From March there are 3 flights all landing early morning almost at the same time??),ALC,AGP,PMI we could do with VCE(again),MRS(again),VLC,BIO,LIS,SVQ,OPO,TRN(again),CIA,ATH (again)ARN(again),HEL,ATL,ORD(again),JFK(again),YYZ(again AC??) all more than do-able with the surrounding population indeed many have been done just not well, remeber BA-JFK first used a 767 then 757 then onto Toronto didn't operate much in winter used FLC aircraft one year!!!!!
