Just to clear up about Tfly at CVT, the aircraft can make more money elsewhere. Next years routes may be strategically reduced in the near future.

Now that we have dropped all the short routes except JER, 4 sector days are no longer a reality. 'W's will involve a crew change at some point in the UK (or down route if we ever do 3-sector days).

Ryanair's 737-800s will have performance difficulties with CVT (wet runway) unless the loads are limited to 140-ish pax. As they also have a BHX base, why bother with CVT?

Easyjet would probably have a load of applications (and Tflys overcrewing would be solved) if they decided to open a base at CVT!!
