On another note, the summer schedules look nearly complete. Edinburgh for example, is showing 5 aircraft based with a few gaps here and there now for summer 2010, yet still no announcement of this. Are there any more bases where this is the case? BHX, EMA etc?
The summer 2010 FR timetable for the Bristol base has gone through at least four versions.
In November it showed a need for seven based aircraft on some days, though only five have been announced.
Since then routes have been dropped, added, moved to different times or different days or scheduled to be operated by non-based aircraft.
When I looked a few days ago Friday mornings still needed six based aircraft but there are other periods when gaps appear in the timetable.
No doubt further tinkering is to come.
The current timetable (or the one I looked at a few days ago anyway) indicates 121 weekly rotations, 24 of which from timings will be operated by non-based aircraft.
