BBC News - City of Derry airport: Ryanair flight to Birmingham axed
It's official but merely confirms what we already knew: Birmingham has been axed.
I suspect Glasgow could have been joining it if they hadn't been relaunching the routes from Glasgow International.
It doesn't augur well for the airport if it cannot sustain flights to the 2nd city of the UK.
With the history of the Bristol route I won't be expecting any other airline to pick up the route. If there was any interest the airport would already have had an operator lined up as they must have known the route was going to be axed prior to last Friday.
Mind you there are now several large gaps in the provision which could prove attractive to the right operator. Manchester has previously attracted 40K pax p.a. , Bristol nearly the same and Birmingham even more.
