BMI to fly to MAN -LAX/SFO?
Hi I heard a rumour recently that bmi is hoping to fly from MAN - LAX/SFO. Probably false, but if anyone has also heard anything about this, then let us all know.

Probably just the resubmission of their existing CAA applications. Don't think we'll be having additional bmi long-haul activity from MAN for the next couple of years at least.

Recently travelled to Ord from Man with BMI. Best long haul flight i have ever had. Very professional service wonderful flight.
An airline i would certainly recommend to anyone i know going to ORD.

Hottest rumours at the moment are MAN-LAX/SFO as you rightly suggest, or LHR-Toronto. Expecting some sort of announcement VERY soon: the Bmi board are deliberating! As for route licences, Bmi has one for just about everywhere, so no clues there.
Glad you enjoyed the service, ops gal. Bmi needs to get some more routes under way though. With one A330 sat at MAN in a non-charterable config, and another awaiting delivery in Toulouse, they could be facing some very expensive parking permits!

Get the spare a/c working and the one awaiting delivery.As far as i know the Man services are getting better all the time and cargo carried is taking them near the top of the table for transatlantic carriers.What luck to start your new services and then the world goes tits up!

Aren't AC a Star partner? Wouldn't they be miffed at BMI going on the route? Can't see them needing capacity just now... of course if it forced down BA's price on the route I'd be happy
