BA/Flybe

Hi CATIII-NDB

Flybe KEF and FLR both lasted for two seasons.

Just found the press release which stated KEF started as a twilight flight in summer and then went to daytime in winter.

FLR was beset by problems, I was delayed over an hour on the 175 due lack of tow-bar and nothing to do with the Captain constantly on the phone to ops, one third of the pax were held at the gate and then some bags didn't travel.

It ended up with the 195 on the route in place of the hairdryers.

Also worth noting not the first time City Flyer have operated from BHX to Palma but the last time was a short season a few years back although not schedule.

Ryanair


I can't believe BHX was over-looked for Cologne - they could have joined the Hall of Shame of failed attempts. Must be close on double figures
