Looking on twitter and saw on Ryanairs page that MoL was on today for an hour and someone asked him:

Any hope for @Ryanair to fly from belfast again? #askryanair

He said:

Hope so. We are talking to both airports but no spare aircraft until end of 2014 #AskRyanair

So hopefully in 2015 we may see RYR back in Belfast at BHD or BFS!

No way it is BHD unless they get their runway sorted and that ain't happening in 14

As for BFS, I think it is unlikely (although I'm sure it could only be a good thing if done right)

airport66

Yes you are probably right but to date have the management at Bfs done anything right.

[GAZMO]

Just looking at the released caa stats for December and EZY service to LGW is greater than the combined EI and BEE service from BHD

I think this is the first time the number on LGW have been greater since EI moved to BHD

Is it getting late for any new route announcements for summer 14 ?

[stab3.5up]

Will the thomas cook news re pulling out of ireland impacr on BFS?

[GAZMO]

Since TCX have just released their winter 14/15 programme I don't think it will impact on BFS.
I think the load factors are quite good out of BFS

[BFS BHD]

Could we see a BFS-CUN route now that TCX isn't doing it from DUB?

[GAZMO]

Probably the same chance as seeing YYZ, DUBAI, MAD, LIS, FCO.......

[BHD2BFS]

Well they have invested in putting a brand new aircraft at BFS so maybe the idea is to bring these routes to belfast where there is less competition than dub

[GAZMO]

Good point BHD2BFS

[GAZMO]

Anyone know about following flight tomorrow for BHX
OV 8705 Birmingham 10:00
Is it for the ulster rugby team?

[BFS BHD]

Looks like ''OV'' is Estonian Air based in Tallinn Airport could be a Bombardier CRJ900 or Embraer E-170!


Edit: ES-AEA E-170 is over Scotland now inbound to BFS!

Will Easyjet be basing an A320 for the peak summer months this year?

[j636]

They will have the 320 for peak.

[GAZMO]

Have noticed EZY are actually selling flights to VRN for tomorrow? I thought that these flights were charter only

[BFS Dude]

Does anyone no if there is any flights to Madeira for this summer? Thanks
