You do have NBE returning at the end of February and DLM returns during April 2014.

TCX are doing one flight to Rovaniemi in Dec as well.

[BFS BHD]

Thanks for that

IF Abertis are prepared to let the "jewel" of their airport portfolio go, surely the for sale sign will be up at BFS

Is it not already sold??

[ILS25]

Is it really ? Who purchased it ?

Jet2 Pisa flight for 2014 is down to 1 weekly.

There are still a few blanks in S14 schedule , and possibility of new destinations?

TCX

That is very disappointing about the LLeida flight. I've used this TCX for the last 8 years for skiing and the flight was always full (first week of February). I was supposedly booked this year again. What happens now?

Llieda Flight

I flew on this route mid march, there was only 62 passengers on the outbound the return was much better with a load factor at about 80%.

I hope Llieda [great little airport] is restored by another carrier, perhaps BE will commit with an e-jet?

I take it Andorra will still be offered as a ski destination using EZY flights to BCN, was it Direct Ski that offered these packages?? So the Thomas Cook group have no ski presence in NI now, leaving Thomson / Crystal, Topflight, Inghams, Direct Ski and then the DIY packages.

Regarding LS, as if we needed more proof, the moving away from the more unique and 'out of the ordinary' destinations, to whack capacity onto AGP, FAO, ALC that are already easily accessible with other operators. DVB obviously was popular to increase the flight to twice weekly S13, but then this was maybe slightly overkill, as back to weekly S14... Could Pula not have taken the other DVB slot to still offer something new??

[Zag23]

if we get the same sort of weather as we did this year, what about cave hill?

[BFS101]

The walk back to the top, from bottom of the piste takes a little long!!

[Zag23]

sure arñt we used to long walks to go on the piste. my nearest pub is half mile walk.

JET 2

Still afternoon slots for LS aircraft Monday to Friday. I think all existing routes have been announced for S14. Any suggestions for these gaps!!!!!

[BFS BHD]

What about Jersey think one of the flights are done by a BFS aircraft.

[Mlinnie]

TCX to LPA dropped ?

Lets hope LS will come in and take it over

Llieda was done by a BFS based aircraft wasn't it ? Maybe an A321 would be too big for that route, same with LPA...

Wonder what will be filled in all of LS's summer gaps ?

Is it really ? Who purchased it ?

Just a rumour, heard TBI were interested a few weeks back. I haven't flown out in a while so not heard anything recent, just figured deal would be done by now.

[ILS25]

TBI is 90% owned by Abertis and 10% by Aena so surely that can't be right ?

TBI was the name I was told but maybe with the idea that Aena have been mentioned for Luton, maybe it is some form of buyout with the TBI people in line to run things?

Sure sounds like smoke and mirrors but we know that they can do magic up there so who knows....
