“This year we have delivered 900,000 passengers and we would like to almost double that next year. We are projecting 1.6 million."
Such a big increase in these economic times? Unlikely at the moment me thinks. If so then it will be at the expense of other carriers by poaching their pax
“We have enough destinations we are offering from Birmingham but if there is the demand we will increase.”
Interesting, looks like the 100 route plan announced when the base opened is now on hold (or was it ever in place?)......I wonder if this also means no additional based aircraft for a while? Looks like we will have to wait to see some of the more 'unusual' FR destinations to appear on the boards at BHX.....
As for 900 staff?? Where were they when I had to queue for nearly an hour to check in for an FR flight last summer!!
