cuthere, you post more grammar guff than aviation bumpf. Very interesting, for a poster who did not capitalise his/her nom de plume. Disappointing!

Eastern, you really are a grumpy bear!

Anyone anything interesting in terms of BFS news? I heard Stansted is a potential FR destination?

Would be surprised if FR started STN. With an additional four flights to LGW from March putting on four or so to STN would dilute the yields on the London market. However FR do strange things!

FR would be doing it (if they do it) more to kick EZY in the teeth rather than to help themselves.

Second dog. Where's first dog? As the inferior of first dog, I would prefer to speak to the original.

As for aviation opinion; in the 12 years I've been visiting these forums, I have made my opinions clear, many, many times. Now. As I said. Bring me first dog, as I can't be holed talking to an inferior.

Have EZY increased their seats for S16? There was talk before FR announced. The domestics seem to subservient to the bucket and spade routes the last time I looked.

EZY have the same number of aircraft based at BFS , unless extra services from GB aircraft!
For summer 16 increased services to JER, AMS( double daily starting from beginning of season on Mon and Fri) BHX double daily on Tues, Wed and Thurs during July and August. Last year only single.
Don't know if more A320 being used, but maybe someone can advise

You were expecting game, Dog?! Pheasant? Partridge? Venison?

GAZMO. Any word on BRS being increased? The lack of an evening flight is a right pig.

Mart, yeah, couldn't agree more. Though they've decimated their Exeter service from daily to three weekly. The amount of capacity to the southwest of England and South Wales from NI is very poor indeed. Perhaps FR will take on BRS.

No idea about BRS. Going by CAA stats they are increasing loads every month so maybe

Yeah becoming a common occurence. Even loads through the week are good. Let's hope it is a sign that there is potential growth available and that FR or an existing operator will be able to tap it.

Yield being the key consideration in routes.

Agree Aerryan, but if the flights are full I assume yields should be good as well. I think the yield management guys are good at their job
