BMI Baby BHX-MAD & aircraft status
The much rumoured Madrid has been announced giving BHX a very tight
winter schedule with its 6 based aircraft plus the EDI one routing through.
It also seems that more is promised despite the backward step on the BHX-EDI, the expected 5th daily rotation suddenly went from 4 to three a day on Monday - Thursday and only 2 today - more about that below.
Can anyone from baby advise or explain this weeks operations especially from BHX?
BHX in the morning has 7 departures with the 8th spare until 11.30 and
there is also a spare in the fleet all day (most days).
Work colleague on the ABZ this morning got cancelled and his day trip
ruined due tech aircraft. Okay this happens and he was not too worried
although he was a bit suspicious as only 6 pax went to the ticket desk and last night he had the whole aircraft to choose from (seat).
However a baby aircraft was inside one of the BHX hangars today and both mid afternoon EDI and GLA's were cancelled and there was still a
Titan operating as well.
Is there currently an aircraft under planned or emergency maintenance (other than the one in the hangar)?
September is normally a "heavy" business orientated month and not a great time to mess your business pax about or have routine maintenance either.
Has there been any unforeseen "incidents" etc?
