Plenty of time to train staff, I believe that under the United contract staff have to be offered a transfer, similar to TUPE, however as its not 50% of servisairs business I think it's slightly different as in they could offer lower hours than the staff would currently be on. I may be wrong, so do not quote. Hopefully not too many will be impacted by this
Irishlad06, I wouldn't say being cheaper is the main reason, but airlines are finding Menzies safety stands a very attractive prospect when awarding contracts.
I believe tickets are bought round the area that you get the boarding card scanned

Just saw this on the Jet 2 fourm.
If true its possitive news for BFS and NI as a whole.
This also fits with an extra passenger 737 at Belfast next year, perhaps a few city routes might be announced? Hint!

It's all good and well having these meetings but we had one about 9 months ago and the airlines managed to convince the government to lower APD with promises about expanding other markets.... 9 months on and we've got nothing

East Mids
what are the chances of Jet2 launching East Midlands to Belfast International?
If Mr. Doran is correct that new routes to GB and Europe to be launched soon, I cant see what other GB route is likely unless BE have some of theirs coming which looks doubtful at this stage.

I wonder if Bfs has ever offered Flybe and Ba really mouth watering deals that would really put pressure on Bhd? They almost certainly could as Bhd would have to match/exceed such an offer, putting Bhd in a really poor position. Long term, there is a real danger to the tatics used by Bhd, they could find themselves earning almost no money at all from airline fees.

Depends who you ask, Mr A, or someone who'll tell you the truth. A number of the airlines are paying very little, and not all are paying the same. City is almost £200m in debt and can never hope to recover that situation. There has been talk about selling it recently and Mr A has, on two occasions, suggested it is worth about £200m. With an EDITDA of circa £2m they would need some rich idiot or a Dutch bank to pay that amount for it. A standard multiple for an acquisition would generally be 10 - 15 times EBITDA. Good luck to them.

25 minutes waiting to get through passport control yesterday afternoon, with a queue stretching back as far as the eye could see at that stage....couple that with the grubby carpet.
What a welcome to NI from BFS.

Looks like another month of passenger growth at BFS which is good news. Looks like EZYs commitment to regional flights has paid off. Hopefully the loss of EI won't effect numbers too much.
Also see on the SEN page that BFS load factors we over 80% last month
Has EZYs S2013 time tables been launched yet?
Any more rumours on new routes/airlines for next year?
