BELFAST CITY AIRPORT (BHD)

[carlrsymington]

from arrivals board at city

Glasgow Prestwick FR7682 13:55 Landed 13:53 NOW ON STAND
Thats all I know

[belfastmark]

has anyone else looked at the Aer Lingus times for next summer. One off the planes seems to land back from Gatwick at 18:55. Surely that wont be it parked up for the night? I know it too little time to fit in another short there and back flight any more mention off them flying to Tenerife etc through the night?

Not a hope of aer lingus flying Tenerife,lanzarote etc of BHD....the runway is too short.I'd say even faro and Malaga will be a push on certain days.

I see Bournemouth airport is now advertising on therouteshop.com and they show a large demand for flights to Belfast, is this a possible route for BE or maybe EIR?

[AirGuru]

The CWL service still needs an extra few weekly rotations with BE, everytime im on it, its always nearly full !

[GAZMO]

CWL, judging by the caa stats BHD to CArdiff only has approx 3000 pax per month, hardly requiring extra flights

[AirGuru]

If you worked it out then its actually around a 70% LF based on the figures you quote, which i also imagine is pretty profitable for all involved, some BE routes operate at much lower figures than those mentioned and have been going for years in the scheds

[BHD2BFS]

Bournemouth is estimating pax figures of around 88,000, a lot I know but there is obviously a new route there for someone to pick up

[GAZMO]

With its close proximity to SOU I cannot see BE taking up the option as it would reduce numbers on the BHD to SOU route?

[BHD2BFS]

Maybe EIR could do a W rotation from Dublin in the morning?

What a fantastic welcome, especially liked the way that staff got involved, this would certainly perk up the positive attitude at a few more airports!
