Well this is a rumour website!!
Would be nice to see them back

Any guess what the next new route will be. Five announcements in six weeks. My bet is on BUD

New Airline?

I was looking on Low Cost Holidays website and came across some flights without a airline code or flight number with them:

Wednesday- Malaga Departs: 08:20, Arrives 15:45

Thursday- Lanzarote Departs: 11:05, Arrives 20:50

Friday- Tenerife Departs: 14:10, Arrives 00:05

Saturday- Palma Departs: 07:30, Arrives 14:10

Sunday- Malaga Departs: 06:10, Arrives 13:30

Don't see anything else at the minute...

But see a Alicante operating with a aircraft from ALC on Saturdays without a Airline code or flight number:
Arrives: 09:10
Departs: 10:10

Rumour I heard about EI was trans Atlantic. Maybe a 757 like they have used in Shannon and Dublin as a pathfinder

It will be a current carrier at the airport. Put 2 and 2 together from some posts over the last 2-3 months and you should work it out.

Only questionable one is ALC schedule. Need to check but its most likely a mistake.

Am not going to confirm names but the answers are in this forum.

Interesting comment J636

CURRENT operator at BFS, rules out MON, EI, BEE

EZY only five planes next summer?
LS just announced 13 extra weekly flights?
TOM and TCX........would need to be doing more than the routes BFS BHD found?
VS hasn't started yet

Times of flights interesting...especially to ACE. Maybe some aircraft based at other UK bases.

Maybe someone else can come up with the answer

Strike at Belfast International Airport - UTV Live News

Was wondering how long it would take before this would happen, When travelling through saw a lot of normally happy faces before the change over of service provider to a lot of rather sad faces afterwards with Swissport.

I would say they will more than likely reach an agreement before it happens.

I hope you are right tigger. I know people don't like to be affected by these things but those guys have my sympathy for the harsh realities of life with their new employer. Menzies seem like a dream in comparison (And I didn't like 6 on 3* off either)

I asked them on Twitter as I am looking at April next year. They said "September" but didn't give a date.

Likely a few routes reduced and more flights done by other bases? Guess we will have to wait and see.
