FCA and FR
Cap Verde from Brimingham, now that has made me laugh, it was probably written by one of my ex BTEC tourism students......
As for FR, we have to be grateful for what we have got at BHX, however I still don't understand their reticence to launch new routes from BHX, apart from MPL there hasn't been one for ages. Their schedule is very stagnant. Worryingly there are a couple of days that see very light a/c utilisation, Tues and Sun, with one a/c doing just PMI and IBZ....surely it must be a worry for BHX management that it would seem cheaper for a loco to park their planes up at BHX in between short sectors than actually fly new routes! Even Leeds has more routes than BHX now and they were only launched as a base last year against stiff competition from Jet2. There are plenty of routes from BHX that FR could have to themselves without even touching WW, ZB and BE!
Maybe they will surprise us with an additional based a/c and a raft of new routes, won't hold my breath though!
