Never going to happen sadly, maybe from BHX. Much as I love my place of work (though for friendliness and ease of use, not a patch on how it was 10 years ago, but then it was a different type of flying), it is an airport best served for worldwide cargo flying, as well as low-cost and charter flying. The airport could sustain a service to a major European hub by the likes of AF, KL or LH, but if an airline like Qatar were to serve the Midlands, they'd fly to Birmingham, the UK's 2nd largest city and an airport with an infraestructure for international, full-service airlines.
