Do you have proof that they are 'fiddling' the stats? I thought BMI Regional held the most punctual title?

Jet2 - Toulouse & Plovdiv W15/16

Is Jet2 still doing the Toulouse & Plovdiv ski flights in W15/16?
If so which company do they operated them for?
Can't seem to find the flights anywhere.

Plovdiv is still going this winter. I believe it is via Travel Solutions (weekly flight). Please check their website.
Don't know about Toulouse

Belfast International Airport talking to Turkish Airways again?

Seen this quote on Belfast International Airports website during the Belfast Mela event BFS Business Development Director Uel Hoey was speaking to Turkish Airways Vice-President, Sales (Americas, UK and Ireland), Mustafa Dogan.

Hope it comes to something the time!!

During the event, Uel met up with senior figures from Turkish Airlines including the airline’s Vice-President, Sales (Americas, UK and Ireland), Mustafa Dogan.
Airport delighted with Belfast Mela event - Belfast International Airport

Whats happening to EXS362 PMI-BFS?
Was holding near Valencia Airport at 10,000ft for a while and now heading into Alicante.
Guessing they will put the passenger on the ALC based B733 and fly them home if its something to do with the aircraft?

BFS Blog - Stats (August 2015)

Some interesting quotes in the latest airport blog:

The bounce back from the dark days of recession was well and truly underway with passenger numbers and business activity reaching a nine-year high.

On the passenger side, June, July and August showed impressive growth, peaking in August with numbers up 11.1% on the corresponding month last year.
On the domestic side alone, there were 24,000 additional passengers – easyJet’s London destinations accounted for more than half that figure.
Jet2 also enjoyed impressive growth with newcomer, Wizz air, carrying 6,000 passengers on its two routes.

More Info - Here
