Ah the "Menzies Contacts" school of yield management

Its the same team of bmibaby knockers who over the last two years have said variously that it would be bust by now, that STN would be pulled in months that baby would be out of BHD by the end of Summer.

Well yes STN is not full every flight, but a lot of them are, AMS is slow, but forward booking on a route that's been going for just 4 weeks are trending in the right direction and Summer booking are in line with what is happening to all airlines in the UK just now ie people are delaying making booking because of concerns over their future (not baby's) and a general lack of confidence. Look at TCX

If baby is having no effect on Easy then great, it means between the airlines there growing the routes and why are you worried either way.

With regards to bmi LHR from BHD is anyone surprised? if you want to be in central London early the quickest route from Belfast is bmibaby, Central London by just a few minutes past 9am is my record
