QR are going to start flights from BHX later in the year... QR have discussions ongoing with 2 other airports. I wonder if BRS is a contender for a 787 service? Ops should be possible given the 787's excellent runway performance?
Would make sense given Newcastle manages to sustain a daily EK 777, and would QR want to go head to head in EDI and GLA against EK/EY?
Apart from EDI, BRS, and GLA, and maybe LBA, I can't think who else would be in contention...
Cardiff and Belfast both have the wrong demographics/ pax numbers in my opinion, Newcastle is doing 'OK' (Not amazingly) with the EK set up, LPL too close to Manchester, EMA too close to BHX...
