Jet2

Maybe a couple of new destinations for S14 if aircraft is ALC based.

Shame about LBA

Maybe the 738 based at ACE for this winter will remain there next summer which could mean new routes for BFS ?

CWL is a pretty good option, apart from the existing BE service from CWL to BHD, and EZY @ BRS offering BFS. But it would be great to see BFS on the boards down here, especially with Jet2.

Blackpool, Faro, Jersey, Palma, Murcia & Pisa still need to be added to the times. Maybe more added tomorrow morning

I think we could see Jet2 to East Midlands soon!

I wouldn't be surprised to finally see Belfast-Malaga with Jet2 or perhaps an increase in the Faro route which is only once a week.

What about SXF or BJV after TOM not doing BJV in 2014?

What about a weekly SFB route using one of the 757s?
I assume there is a few ETOPS aircraft as they fly to EWR

Is this at the cost of frequency of another route
Or an increase of operations at bfs?
But again it is the same old route, nothing new again

Jet2 AGP

Well at least it's something

Maybe this won't be at the expense of the reduction/cut of another route. Seeing as how the ALC flights will be done by a ALC based plane. Which frees up space for the BFS based aircraft

And in regards to East Midlands/Cardiff with Jet2. Who's to say EZY won't start them ? BHX was started and EZY don't have much presence there, only in the winter. But The BHX route seems to be going well !

Mlinnie,

It took easyJet a while to react to bmibaby's withdrawl from BFS to go onto MAN and even longer for BHX. These are much bigger markets than LBA or CWL. Also the previous track records on LBA and CWL wouldnt inspire easyJet with a 156 seats. Based on Jet2's loads on LBA, I am not confident that it would sustain a x2 daily 319. Add to that Jet2 were well established on the route and they tried a variety of schedules, so I'd rule out LBA. CWL is too close to BRS, so a no go as far as I can see. The best we can hope for is easyJet adding some capacity on BHX and MAN.

Unless EZY wants to be innovative and operate through flights
BFS to CWL and on to European destination not offered at moment from BFS CWL is only a daily flight max.

Although against EZY focus they did eventually introduce flexi fares, allocated seating etc.

If there is a market for it why not
