I don't think range is a problem from Belfast.

Now that Foster has May by the b@lls, this looks like your best time to eliminate the dreaded APD and have Heathrows new runway built in Aldergrove.

Moving swiftly past your crude language.

APD has been removed for Long Haul flights from Northern Ireland already.

I would put money on that Mr A and Mr K's phones have a lot of DUP numbers being phoned just now.

Up until now the assembly has had the power to remove APD, but not the money. Now the DUP will get the Tories to pay for it!

I think we'll be lucky to get international routes. It looked empty this evening. Only five planes.

“At the other end, you can be through Immigration in under 15 minutes without the congestion of Newark, JFK, Boston or the queues at pre-clearance in Dublin"
Well that's the first time I've seen pre-clearance described as a nuisance for normal travellers... most of them seem to like it.

We fly to ninety destinations in Europe
I'll have to sit-down with a tally-counter but I think some creative accounting might be involved there. Did they count Leipzig and Cologne, occasional cargo flights operate directly...

With the expansion of routes and frequencies at quite a fast rate what is BFS management plans for expanding the terminal?
Security is boxed in and can't really be expanded and shops will start to struggle to cope at peak times?
I'm quite surprised a covered walkway or pier has not been build for the EZY stands it's a miserable walk to the aircraft when wet and windy

First Flight to the US Fully Booked

Meanwhile there is the possibility of Norwegian using its Belfast aircraft, which would be on the ground here for more than six hours, on another short hop - perhaps to Copenhagen, some time in future.
