United/Norwegian/easyjet

Surely has to be Norwegian they are on about.

6 738 MAX due this year and Belfast without any APD and figures of 9000 pax a month in peak. Norwegian would be daft not to talk to Belfast let alone the other way round. Of course winter is totally different but if it is a US based aircraft they could send it elsewhere as they already have US 737 flights in winter.

Also imagine the headline base fare and how they could milk it in publicity much more so than EDI.

A320.b744

Obviously BHX are in a weak position at the moment with AA leaving but I can't imagine they have done much of a deal with United up until now but I suppose you can never be sure.

easyjet

Still nothing rumoured from the BHX re the BFS route about it ending all very quiet.
