Wow! I must have been out of the country when that happened, don't remember seeing or hearing anything on local media. Runway closed in the middle of the night, really? I thought Aldergrove were a 24 hour outfit with full ATC and Fire Service available. Lucky he didn't wipe out an ILS, that would have been seriously embarrassing, wonder who did the risk assessment for that episode.. Beautiful car though, glad the driver wasn't badly hurt.

A shame that Malta does not seem to be returning, even seasonally.

More Growth

I see in the Newsletter that BFS management are talking about 16% growth in October and that level of growth throughout the winter, pretty stellar stuff. Maybe the corner has been turned and we can see more in the future.

Also to quote from NI news "Our airlines are reporting strong growth, and it is reasonable to expect that if this encouraging trend continues, we will see new destinations added to our Flight Information screens as we head into 2016."


New Destinations.......any guesses??

Not sure.


- Been looking on Thomson Airways website and noticed; Larnaca, Heraklion, Faro, Alicante, Gran Canaria, Antalya and Bodrum on the drop down list on their 'Flights' section of their website.

Likely using seats on Thomas Cook & EasyJet, but could be something to keep an eye on as I think they are still working on there schedule for S16!

Cannot see much change in destinations for TCX and TOM. As airport66 suggested there are the additional flights next summer from BHD.

Wonder if EZY are going to finish summer schedule soon. ACE still showing flights to early May 2016, nothing after that?

Travelled through BFS late October. Haven't travelled for a while, impressed with the place, seemed like any medium sized airport. Inside bright, clean and modern. At that particular time loads of flights the place was buzzing. Generally speaking a pleasant experience. I got the feeling that this place is going to expand.
Areas for improvement, the toilets need totally revamped, a bit of work required in reducing the security congestion. Why did they knock done the middle pier (many moons ago of course) as the aircraft park as if it were still there, only difference travellers have to walk outside?
