Stelios to BHX & CVT: Make me an offer

Also talking about lo-co Bloodbath, which we've heard plenty from M O'L already.

Woudln't Ray normally be making comments about potential base airports - or is Stelios going to be taking more interest in EZ now?

Birmingham needs to win

Birmingham needs to win this race. BA Citiexpress couldnt care less about the regions. MyTravelLITE dont know what they are and BMI Baby are just duplicating routes already opearted by other airlines lets see some orange at BHX!!

Grrr

Stelios has little direct influence over easyJet anymore, therefore his comments must be taken with that in mind!

What's that got to do with Stelios being so obvoiusly correct about the future of the lo-cost market?

A move into BHX(if a suitable pricing deal could be negotiated) would be a good move by easy and would be good for the Midlands in general. Baby are planning to operate from both NEMA & BHX. Doubtful if easy would, but who knows? Whatever, it would certainly put the ' cat amongst the pigeons'.

Can't see Easy making it into CVT - CVT has two major things against it for Easy:
  • Its owned by TUI. Why would TUI bring in competition for ThomsonFly, especially in the start-up phase?
  • The terminal (or Passenger Processing Portakabin). put many more flights in there and it won't have the capacity.
So it looks like BHX are in pole position by default...

However, if they do move into Birmingham (which is unlikely), where would they park them? It has already been said elsewhere that at several times during the day at Birmingham, the majority of stands will be full.

BHX are currently in the process of moving some of the European operators (Swiss, SN Brussels, Skyways etc..) to T2/Eurotub from the main terminal to free up space for bmi baby, Gulf Air etc.. (in the main terminal).
