BHX

jfy1999

The BHX 2017 schedule I imagine was put together pre-Brexit and in the past Ryanair have never released summer bookings this early but it has backfired as it has undergone many changes already.

The original was clearly 5 based aircraft as certain days the schedule was maxed out. Then post-Brexit it was stated no further UK base expansion in the short-term and low and behold mass time changes and back to four based but a BHX Ryanair record of 13 away based flights on a Tuesday at peak and over 10 on other days.

There might be a change of heart on Palma & Ibiza although it could be a case of just fitting in the flights from the Baleric bases.

As long as they operate BHX won't be complaining as I am sure an aircraft departing at 10am rather than 7am will help the flow of passengers through the terminal.

I have flown at both those times this summer and difference is astonishing although the airport was coping at 7am it was a totally different experience.
