Dear All,
Say what you will of BFS but they have seen growth this year. They have added new routes (reinstated others) to BHX, MAN (ok added last winter but helping growth) and SEN etc.
The net loss of EI is a total of 5 flight a day in Winter (based on LY figures) and 7 in summer a day.
Easyjet have added SEN x2, MAN x 2 (going to 3) and BHX x1. With Jet2 adding a few rotations, BFS wont be far off the mark.
So not being bias in favour of BFS and not getting into the slagging match about which of our local airports is better than the other, we will wait and see how the figures pan out.
