I'd say the Canaries are a good income source through the winter for EI also, and as only one Canary destination can be realistically operated per day, the question is what to do with the aircraft rather than sitting at BFS. Couldn't see EI only serving LHR during the winter. Would say the Canaries are fairly safe.

Think the first flight is this Thursday to Faro. Then it will visit, ACE, REU, TFS, PLM, LPA, AGP, BJV, DLM, BOJ, MAH and IBZ. This will continue through to last September / early October depending on destination.

All this panic about the EI winter flights not on sale yet. Am I right in thinking that Cork has only just been released?

The flights from Waterford airport are operated by Aer Arann. They are just branded as Aer Lingus Regional.

Easy's new routes?

Just using the easyjet app for the iPhone and when choosing a destination in the drop down if gives you Verona and Brescia as destinations from Belfast??? It is only on the app mind you, as I checked the regular Internet site and it doesn't have these choices.........

BA belfast flights

Just looking at half term holidays for Oct 12 between LHR-BHD/BFS . BA (redirected through bmi) is coming up at £268 one way leading to an incredible £536 return, Aer Lingus to BFS £109 all in.

Any ideas why pricing structure may be so high with BA/bmi?

PRICING STR

I noticed the pricing issue too mate. However, when I went on the day after it was down to a normal price - try again tomorrow!

As to the reason, haven't got a clue?
