I think even on the European front it will be difficult to break even with an already poor year this year. Flybe will be significantly less than Flybe and BACON and, whilst ANY expansion is welcome, it would seem like Baby's new routes are like putting a sticking plaster on a broken leg.
Some interesting times ahead and BHX probably needs a good long look at where its heading, can't see many (if any) full service airlines being interested after OK and AZ both failed.
As for Long Haul, it would seem that with CO going west and EK goin east the management are just happy to advertise the legendary 'one easy connection' and settle for it.
I think BHX has potential to be far greater than what it is, what we need is an administration with ambition, vision and most of all balls, but sadly it's BHX and nothing ever changes.
