Arrived into BRS on CO76 (2 hours late), apparently due to some skillful negotiation by our pilot with ATC at EWR. They even managed to turn the flight and get it back out again. Apparently BFS/EDI/GLA etc. didn't make it.

1 hour from wheels down to being back at my desk in Central Bristol (including using the Flyer to get to Temple Meads). I am *seriously* going to miss this route. And spoke to an American guy on SFO-EWR who had no idea that CO flew to Bristol, and said he would have used it if he'd known.

Santito - I suspect airlines rather like having more demand than capacity, as it drives fares up. I wouldn't have thought they'll upgrade capacity if it lowers fares, or unless they think they're going to lose customers to other airlines, which at BRS means... um......
