Not sure BFS BHD, it is related to a pilgrimage, this is all that I know. Not sure who the tour operator is.

Its excellent news that we will finally have an air ambulance asset to be used for the benefit of everyone. I think Aldergrove should be a reasonably central location for most parts of the country as well.

No doubt according to Aldergrove management this should be worth at least another 100 jobs according to their reasoning recently!

Ah but it would created more jobs at BHD. They could've also used the route development fund to launch new services from BHD - Ballygawley Roundabout or BHD - Dunloy traffic lights.
Joking aside it's a great development and tribute to John Hinds.

Apart from the next announcement for winter routes from FR (anyone know a date)
Is it too late for EZY to add anything new? Or was BE just early announcing theirs?

I think it's mid April before EZY will announce winter routes.

Will be interesting to see if they maintain KRW three weekly. They could drop Tuesday rotation to KRK and Saturday to Lyon and try something new? Only my view

VNO on sale for winter, Mon & Fri, arrives BFS 19.30 and departs at 20.00 on both days. Some very cheap lead in fares

Perhaps they're here to inaugurate the new toilet block? Exciting times at BIA.

Gossip about a Wamos Air 747 due in tonight on a charter, perhaps for the mil side? No futher info.

What a absolute shame if Heraklion goes they are the only airline operating that route. Personally love Crete! Surely there would be more money made on that route vs no competition than trying to fight against Ryanair and Jet2?

Thomson Airways - Summer 2017

Think this is what TOM is operating in Summer 2017 no times etc yet.

Monday:
Bourgas
Ibiza

Tuesday:
Palma
Reus

Wednesday:
Mahon
Rhodes

Thursday:
Palma
Lanzarote

Friday:
Reus
Corfu

Saturday:
Palma
Gran Canaria

Sunday:
Malaga
Tenerife

New route to Gran Canaria, Dalaman dropped, Reus now 2 weekly all summer. Of course could change before they put summer 2017 on sale. This is just from looking at the Thomson | Holidays designed for you. Only from Thomson website on the Destination List.

I see FR and EZY have flights to Gatwick at 16.10 and 16.20 respectively. Do BFS have enough "Gatwick" signs to hang up beside the departure gate?

It'll be interesting to see how numbers pan out for April, especially with an early Easter.
