195's & winter 2015/6

JetJamie

Re the winter schedule - just showing off that they have plenty of cash in the bank!!!!

The only problem with that is that they have run the risk that all the city-break traffic and skiers have booked with other airlines and yes I do know the majority of flybe bookings are in last three months prior to departure but in the past at least they have put the ski routes on sale before the rest.

Has there been a change of tack with the 195's, as a sixth 195 has been returned to service today?

I can't see any mention of flying 6 195's this summer unless this all changed with the Cardiff arrangement but I understood the aircraft were due to be the 195's from Manchester and Birmingham and duly the first aircraft flew last week down from MAN to CWL (MAN - CDG now a 175) and the booking engine shows BHX-CDG changing to the 175 from September.

However G-FBEN sneaked into BHX yesterday from Exeter and has operated BHX- Milan tonight with the other 195 on BHX-CDG as usual.
