Thanks A330 for that.
I see the BHD scenario from a slightly different perspective. EI have stuck by their Belfast operation since they came in with a base at BFS in late 2007. It's been hard yards and on launch they had a very ambitious programme, lost heavily and tried many new routes that hadn't been flown hitherto on a scheduled basis e.g. Budapest and double daily on AMS, was traditionally single daily ..
They introduced the 319, EPR and EPS from Iberia to make the base stack, which underpins their commitment . They now are faced with a court case due to the move to BHD, which in my view will end in their favour.
With a lower cost base and a wider network ex BHD, room to grow once the court case is dealt with , I can see scope for another unit . With some 320's coming on stream this is a real possibility. I can see IAG reducing overall frequency on BHD LHR but increasing ac size, who knows we may yet see green 321 at BHD yet. I believe that EI's finest days are yet to come for Belfast City ...
