Turkish Airlines wouldn't do themselves much harm if they started a couple of weekly rotations to IST with timed well onward international connections to Far East and domestic connections to Antalya and Dalaman.
Plenty of people with holiday homes in Turkey who would make use of such flights and local travellers heading to Far East could one stop to many places direct from BFS.
Could be a good move. Fingers crossed!

We travel to Turkey at least 3 times a year. just back 2 weeks ago, used TK out of Dublin. No charge for food/drinks plus 30kg of checked luggage. If this happens, my experience tells me they may be cheaper than TOm/TCX to get to Turkey, although there will still be a market for package holidays. TK service to Ist is very good with a massive number of onward connections. Will be a very good development if it happens.

Turkish is the 4th largest airline in the world, by number of destinations. If it is TK, then this could provide some great connections to the middle east and beyond.

BFS dude
Jet2 I think have announced 23 weekly flights for S15. This plus the 5 mail cargo evening flights makes 28 thus double daily for each plane.
Don't know what they are doing with their ALC based aircraft?
