The poster forgot to credit airliners.net where the information came from but seems reliable although nobody at BHX has leaked it.

I flew Y in June/July with barely over 100 pax each way, I paid £349 return although to be fair the cost on the days either side were £720 in Y.

Product is as lousy as it gets on Transatlantic but service was actually okay.

The CAA stats explain everything without even considering yields the only mystery is that there were few cheap fares until recently.

Also I think the date shown is US style not GB and it ends 6 January 2017 which would make ore sense.

I still think this route is made for the Norwegian 737 MAX but I understand that BHX might not be in their plans unless this prompts them.

A grim couple of weeks on long-haul with EK41/2 cancelled in November and selected September and October dates.

However short-haul is still looking good!
