Any truth behind the BACF LCY-BHD rumours?

Would be interesting given Jersey monopoly on the route.

EI time changes.....

So are Aer Lingus trying to sabotage their operation, from 30th October the first Heathrow flight doesn't depart until 0900..... that's great for business and connecting passengers
Anybody remember IAG doing the same to bmi before they wrapped it up. Definitely sounds like Belfast has been given the kiss of death!

I'm just booking this on Flybe for a few days time.

From London, the timings for business travel are annoying. First flight doesn't get in to BHD until nearly 1000, last back leaves at 1745. There are four flights a day but three of them are squashed together in the afternoon. This might reflect actual demand, of course ... but I doubt it.

I would guess this is down to slot availability as early morning and early evening departure slots are at max capacity. I've always found the weekend flights quite busy with Flybe but not sure about the loads mid week.

The tour operator may allow you to buy seat only.

It was a top secret black ops mission. No one saw it and it never landed in Belfast. The event never took place.

Aer Lingus 2017

Two based aircraft:
LHR x3
AGP x1 (-2 weekly) and FAO x1 (-2 weekly)

Non based:
ALC x3 (-2 weekly) - DUB operated
PMI x4 (-1 weekly) - DUB operated

I'm sure freq changes are possible so some may appear.
