flybe at CWL

The online schedule suggested the following (starting at the beginning of September)
Cardiff - Edinburgh: 13x weekly
Cardiff - Dublin: 12x weekly
Cardiff - Belfast City: 7x weekly (Operates with BHD based A/C)
Cardiff - Paris CDG: 7x weekly
Cardiff - Glasgow Intl.: 5x weekly
Cardiff - Munich: 5x weekly
Cardiff - Dusseldorf: 4x weekly
Cardiff - Faro: 3x weekly
Cardiff - Jersey: 3x weekly
Cardiff - Milan Malpensa: 3x weekly
Cardiff - Cork: 2x weekly

A sample Monday in mid-September using the timings from the online timetable does suggest 2x based aircraft.

A/C 1 operates
Cardiff - Edinburgh
Edinburgh - Cardiff
Cardiff - Dusseldorf
Dusseldorf -Cardiff
Cardiff - Munich
Munich - Cardiff
Cardiff - Edinburgh
Edinburgh -Cardiff

A/C 2 operates
Cardiff - Dublin
Dublin - Cardiff
Cardiff - Glasgow Intl.
Glasgow Intl. - Cardiff
Cardiff - Paris CDG
Paris CDG - Cardiff
Cardiff - Dublin
Dublin - Cardiff

A/C one does seem to be a jet (according to the flight times and turnaround times).

A/C two is more difficult to tell but more than likely a jet (again looking at the flight times). It would also be strange to think they would open a new base with two different aircraft types suggesting two based jets are more likely.

BHD will continue to be operated by a BHD based aircraft
