Thought it might have been a little higher but considering two Sundays
of weather disruption not too bad.
Emirates not mentioned directly again but I bet it was up. Nobody seems
to blow the EK trumpet much at BHX - trying to keep under the radar?
As for the earlier comment of a third service a day, the real problem is
the 2nd flight, which seems to have exceptionally high load factors.
The spare seats are on the 773 in the afternoon (sometimes).
With three two class 772's leaving the fleet the next upgrade would be
a 773 on the evening (like Manchester) and I bet there are quite a few
contenders for any spare aircraft. Cape Town is the latest route announced but on a three class 332 to start with then a three class 777.
