There's a big surprise as bmi does not fly from LHR to BFS so how can the flight numbers for a route that does not exist be changed?
Just shows you cannot believe all you read
Let's not get too agitated about this. We can all figure out what is actually meant, can't we?
Could it be that the original reference was to the BFS city code, and some automatic decode (reasonably) interpreted it as the BFS airport code? After all, the same release refers to DUB as "Dublin International" and I don't think I've ever met anyone who knows anyone who's ever called it that (unless perhaps an American who also calls BA "British Air"
but that's another rant).
