Whilst I appreciate that it is the start of the Winter season, it looks as if it will be a bleak winter for BHX and its resident airlines, last week we have had an FR departing with just 1 pax, a few ZB's with single figures and more than usual TOM positioning flights.

it will be interesting to see Olton Petes stats for Oct, IMO one or two airlines may be hard pressed to survive, as most economists are predicting that 2012 is going to see the worst of the recession.

Even the "staycations" are suffering as a large caravan dealership went into receivership last week, so people just do not have the money for overseas travel/holidays ??
