I didn't realise the belfast to Iceland flight was 2 times each week!

[BFS BHD]

Yup two times a week all year round.

I wonder how popular BFS is for inbound traffic from Iceland?

[AIRPORT66]

The first inbound flight had 68 pax on it the flight last friday had 123 pax on it quite few children on it didn't think it would have been a family destination.

Daily flights to CPH begin in 2015 with EZY.

Great Xmas present for BFS
Does this mean extra aircraft? Not on website at moment. Daily flights!!!
Have you a source for this announcement?

Congrats to management at BFS

[BFS BHD]

Nice!! Wonder when the flights go on sale!

[AIRPORT66]

Wonder when they are going to make announcement and if they will also mention the German route as well they got generous new contract so wait see what happens.

[GAZMO]

Can BFS fill a daily flight to CPN. Seems a bit much to me. Hopefully I'm wrong

[ILS25]

You may be right Gazmo, CPN is Papua New Guinea !

[GAZMO]

Oops slip of the finger should be CPH

[BFS BHD]

Still nothing on sale... EI-A330-300 where did you hear about CPH going on sale? Do you know when its to be announced??

[EI-A330-300]

It was not officially announced by EZY. Didn't give a season but suspect it may be winter 15 and I agree not sure daily is a good idea.

TOM

just wondering if anyone knows what the flying schedule will be like this year at BFS
when does the aircraft arrive for summer and leave?
also will it be a sunwings b738 as usual?

[AIRPORT66]

The TOM schedule for next summer is the same no change it will be the sunwings aircraft again the second edition Thomson/Firstchoice flying programme for next year is just out nothing new in it but they are looking at there Bfs flying programme my be something different for 2016.

Seen United airlines is still on.. Thought it would've stopped by now but it is actually ending on the 6th January and then coming back on the 12th March.

Bookings are quite high for recent flights, looking at seatmaps.. Is there honestly any point in getting rid of the flight for 8 weeks lol? it seems like a pointless exercise.

[BFS BHD]

Was always stopping 6th Jan 2015 for a while.

[BHD2BFS]

When it was announced was the airport not still owned by the Spanish company, maybe this was done at the time to prove something?

However considering the airport is owned by an American company surely another deal could have been reached with an American airline

Maybe it's too early to say but seems yet again we won't have a direct link with Canada this summer

[AIRPORT66]

airport66

Your right no link to Canada but lot going on behind the scene in relation to new business for Belfast.

[speedrestriction]

Surprised to hear CPH; would have had guessed at a few others before. Maybe SXF, MXP, VCE, LIS or even MAD.
