BHX-FLR
Another factor affecting the BHX service was weather/logistics. The aircraft flew LCY-FLR-BRS-FLR-BHX-FLR and early on was quite disrupted with delays and cancellations due weather issues affecting Florence. FR24 shows a better performance in the since September with a couple flights disrupted in October and one September.
A case of deja vu for BHX - FLR as flybe basically gave up on the 175 operating the route due to operational reasons with the 195 was subbed in and eventually the service ended.
I sat on the 175 for an hour with 85 other pax whilst they searched for the missing tow-bar which must have been hiding in the hold under the 30 or so bags they removed and a brief shower took the temperature down a couple of degrees before we departed.
Fares and loads seemed okay on the BACF Florence with September showing 84% load factor but BHX IBZ and for that matter Palma were awful at times although Malaga seemed fine.
