The bmibaby 4th Aircraft is going the Birmingham!

The airline, which has been embarking on a prolific expansion programme at Birmingham International, will base an additional Boeing 737 aircraft at the airport taking its total fleet to nine. Capacity will increase by a staggering 80% year on year.
Increase on schedules at CWL means that they will keep their 3rd aircraft. There will be a new 4 weekly route to Murcia, also there the BFS 2xDaily schedule is move to a more Biz friendly schedule.

Scotland also sees a major expansion-
More daily flights for business travellers from Edinburgh and Glasgow International to the Midlands
bmibaby, the award winning airline with tiny fares and the largest operator of services from Scotland to the Midlands has today (Friday 16 February 2007) announced further development on its network from Scotland.
From September 2007, bmibaby will be increasing the number of daily flights from Edinburgh to Birmingham International to five a day with early morning departures at 7am and 8.45am, offering real choice for the business traveller. Combined with the three times daily service to East Midlands Airport this makes a total of 46 flights per week offered by the airline from Edinburgh to the Midlands.
The airline will also be increasing the number of daily flights from Glasgow International to Birmingham to four services a day. This combined with the current four times daily service from Glasgow International to East Midlands makes a total of 41 flights per week offered by the airline from Glasgow International to the Midlands.
So, this years expansion is complete, schedules are full, except for BHX. There, who knows if there will be more routes. But good news for BHX and CWL. Nothing for EMA, and MAN.
