Gazmo, do you know what tour operator this BE flight is for??

Would seem that Direct Ski have chartered Jet2 to operate BFS SZG, departing as LS2151 at 08.55 returning as LS2152 at 14.55. This is an increase in capacity for them, as if I remember last year they used BE from BHD.

BE still operating to SZG from BHD on behalf of Crystal / Thomson Ski, departing 07.25 as BE9151.

A third weekly flight from BFS / BHD to Salzburg on the cards??? That's in addition to Inghams operating the INN with Austrian.

Perhaps Topflight Schools, as Topflight don't appear to have a winter program on-sale to the general public from NI.

Was it Topflight Schools that chartered the FMM last year?? Could this be as an alternative. Strange surely not to utilise BE from BHD though??

Is it just me or have the Belfast/Belfast City threads been hijacked by spotters?

My point is there seems to be very few posters who really know whats going on and not having looked at pprune for a while it seems to have got worse. Listing timetables and schedules is not worth reading for me and I`m sure others as well or am I just being grumpy this morning?

Is niaviation not the place for spotters where they can compare what aircraft flew the BA09785736346 on 45th Julember from Belfast to Ballygobackwards and who the skipper was and what seat they sat in etcetc

Does anyone from inside the fences at our airports have anything of value to add, thats my question? I speak not as an employee or a spotter, just as an interested businessman who loves flying and how the industry evolves and changes.

I`ll get my anorak and flask and be off now...

I just being grumpy this morning
Panpanpanpan, outside of your usually valid contribution, yes maybe a tad grumpy! . It might upset you though to hear about a movement...as follows.....

The Antonov will be visiting start of November to ship the first C Series wings to Canada, the movement of the wings by road from Belfast to Aldergrove will be done overnight. The reason for using the Antonov is not the weight but the length of the wings. Incase anybody is interested.

Im not sure about which Antonov, have a feeling it wont be 225, as there are not too many of them floating around! Possible 124, though I will know something more definite soon. Will keep you posted.!

Just the one operational AN-225...would be quite a sight off 07. But I suspect in this case baby brother will do the job.

Have to say, PANx4 has a point...the minute detail of every schedule is not really that interesting...I fear we have lost the contributions of industry professionals on this page as a result.

I noticed EZY had a flight arriving at 7.55 this morning from LGW and departing again at 8.40 back to LGW. Does anyone know is this a one off?

1 off no doubt, I would say its related to the cancellation of an inbound and outbound LGW last night

Just thinking that the EZY timing today would be excellent news for the NI traveller. Naturally still waiting on EZY announcement of their extra London Flights but I think an early arrival will suit the business market and likewise the returning flight to LGW would be two hours the first flight

Time will tell

Hey Bud, I think the Antonov starts this coming friday. I believe it will arrive about 8am and depart around 8pm but then my info is second or third hand so it may have been changed to November.
