nef, I think that post could have been read in two ways. This is how I read it...
Krakow back with Jet2 was a welcome suprise as a said a couple of weeks ago Prague was coming back with a different low cost carrier.
Different - Jet2 as opposed to Easyjet last time round.

Excellent news re- Jet2
I'd love them to take on the Barca service, getting at my wits end with Easyjet these days. Using AF/KLM and BA to get between work and home in Barca.
Speaking of BA. Corker of a delay on the BA1333, due out 13.40 and not going unti l9.00 (it'd be quicker to catch the east coast express!)

BA's delay is impressive, but not by any means the only 'corker' today.
Dropped a friend and his wife off for the EZY flight to Palma, and noticed a provisional 15:00 departure for a Belfast departure that should have left at 07:30!!!
More crewing trouble?

Just to clarify my earlier post the different low cost carrier I referred to was Jet2 as opposed to EZY who operated the route previously.
Now to the Monarch rumour I heard the routes are not the ones shaded grey on the Monarch website as these are as previously mentioned the AVRO seat sale routes. As I understand Monarch are looking for a base from Summer 2012, routes as looked at are Teneriffe, Barcelona, Malaga, Palma and Alicante. Could the airport be looking to replace a lost EZY base in summer 2012 as I cant see both EZY and ZB operating NCL to BCN for example. However as were talking about 2012 lots of things can change.
I also believe that FR have considered, discussed and ruled out with the airport the possibility of picking up the now vacated STN route

Close cjags.
The a/c on the morning Belfast returned to Newcastle due to weather. This a/c then continued its planned flights and a spare a/c was ferried in from Luton to operate the Newcastle-Belfast and some other weather affected Belfast flights.

EK load factors
CabinCrewe
BHX was 77% in June, which although lower than MAN & GLA was still over 5000 up on 2009 and this included several upgrades to the evening service.
Load factor would have been about 80% based on the expected aircraft.

Any truth in a whisper I have heard about industrial action coming soon? I have heard (third hand - so not taking too serious) that ballots are to take place among some ground staff in the next few weeks.
