The MAN/GLA definitely finishes at the end of the month (June). The memo is on the bmi intranet.

Manchester - Glasgow
"The MAN/GLA definitely finishes at the end of the month (June). The memo is on the bmi intranet"
No it doesnt!
the intranet says
"As a consequence of this review bmi regional will be reducing their Manchester to Glasgow service to a single weekday rotation."
So its not stopping! Hence it can still be booked!! Sorry dont mean to p*ss on anyones fire, but if we are going to broadcast whats on the intranet site, lets report what is being said!!!
nboy

A single return flight each day means it's being axed. It's a time critical business route for God's sake. Once a day is useless in that market. It's being left to flybe.

if its useless, then why have it? why not get rid of it completely?
Not knocking you, but if thats the case why not get rid of it completely? its certainly not slot protection like half of the domestics from heathrow.

@Skipness One Echo
Am I right in thinking that BD has previous form for chopping routes in this manner? i.e. They reduce it down to a single frequency or rearrange the timings so that they are of no use to anyone who wants to use it on a regular basis for business, and then say that they will axe the route because loads don't support it?
If this is the case it seems nonsensical to behave like this.

They did this with the Leeds and Teesside to Heathrow routes but they were slot holders at the London end. There is no such issue here so I have no idea of the rational here.

No they are about 100 miles north of Heathrow at Donnington Hall, near Derby.
