Hopefully well see a route launched with the timetable, surely Rome is a profitable one and we must be the only region in the uk that doesn't have any flights to Prague, I think EI is a great airline ad love flying with them but every year their operations just seem to get smaller and smaller from BFS

Was collecting a friend from the airport and all the EU arrivals just seem to be palma, Malaga, faro over and over again, is the NI public really that unadventurous that we need 3/4 airlines flying to the same place

They obvously like these places cos there is no demand for Turkey, Cyprus etc
At the minute the number of airlines flying to the popular ones are:
ALC - 4 (EIN, EXS, EZY, TCX)
AGP - 3 (EIN, EZY, TOM)
FAO - 4 (EZY, EXS, EIN, TOM)
TFS - 3 (EIN, TCX, TOM)
PMI - 5 (AEA, TCX, TOM, EZY, EXS)
IBZ - 4 (TCX, TOM, EZY, EXS)
Most flights according to the system are nearly always atleast 90% full.

I believe it is Arelene Foster who is trying to establish these links, I think we will hear of Toronto before anything else

They have been trying since the fall of GSM and Zoom, but this is the first time they had help and backing from our local government. Fingers crossed they manage it.

Taxiway Speed
What is the normal taxi speed at Aldergrove. I was on the Jet 2 flight to PMI last Saturday. We were about 10 mins late leaving the stand and the pilot seemed to be determined to make up time on the taxiways. Normally this is a leisurely journey up to the runway but it seemed rather hasty. He didn't even appear to slow down to make the turns. Not complaint, just enquiring.

star alliance
Was just thinking, now that BMI has left NI, there is a gap left for a star alliance member to move in. We have united airlines that is a member so that helps connect us to the US for connecting flight. But I have seen myself that most people travelling to LHR on BMI where connecting to a member airline, meaning that airlines are now going to miss out on pax now that we are now kind of being forced to fly with BA and One world. Would LH not be interested in starting up a German route to help connecting passengers.
