So FR can carrying 189 out of BHD but 144 into BHD. Some kind of sneaky depopulation policy?

How long can the restricted load factor at BHD be allowed to impact the Ryanair stats or will the figures reported reflect the new permissable load as the 100% mark?

How are the stats at the city of derry recorded. Does 141 = 100% or is the load factor calculated as a percentage of the aircraft capacity.

Just tried to Check in online for STN - BHD......Message states.... Unfortunately Web check in not available for this airport

Typical Ryanair T&C say, we know we charged you for this facility but tough, however you can get on the aircraft first.. Is it me? Surely they know this is not available for BHD so why lead people to believe its available take their money and then don't deliver.

Great... I'm flying BHD-LPL next Wed night, coming back on Sat night and went for the check in online option. Guess I'll have to check in at the airport instead...

On another note, are flybe axing BHD-GWY? It doesnt seem to be bookable after Jan..

Yes, they`ll be about as pleased as the ATCO`s who are being forced to break CRATCOH to keep the airfield open for them.

FR from LPL now due in at 22:30. Bit of a TCX influx at BFS in the early hours tomorrow. Just the four 757s!

Eastern,
well its either stay or face possible disciplinary action so i`d say forced is the right word. Looks like they`ll get it away with it legally tonight but do the management care? Answers on a postcard!

I once read a quote on here which went something like
"taking it from behind without the courtesy of a reach around".

Welcome to the City experience.

The return Ryanair flight to Liverpool is estimated to depart at 11.00pm.
On July 14 my wife and I travelled back from Manchester on a flight which, while delayed, would have landed around 10.00pm had it been allowed to proceed to BHD
Needless to say we were diverted to BFS adding quite a bit of time to our journey home to East Belfast.
BHD told me the diversion was necessary because the aircraft had to depart on a repositioning flight immediately after its passengers disembarked.
This would have meant a take-off during 'curfew' hours presumably causing annoyance in Holywood or the Albertbridge Road depending in which direction the aircraft departed.
We were on a BAe 146. Is a Ryanair B737-800 quieter than this aircraft or is this airline's SLF being treated more favourably than Flybe's?

There's nothing quiet about a 737-800. Pretty impressive stuff..they've managed a whole 3 days operating before having to use an extension

I just wonder how long BHD will put up with the costs involved with each FR delayed flight as I am sure that they will be bullied into not invoicing FR!!! (WE ARE NOT PAYING £500 EVERY HOUR... OR WE ARE OUT OF HERE)

Just tried again, different message this time. Online checkin failed. Then given a number of reasons as to why this could have happened. Tried again ( 3rd time ) Lo and behold it worked. So moral of story is keep trying and don't believe everything you read
