Last year they did a split announcement - I'm expecting the same this year. The launch today was very Spain/France focused.

Pedantically and tangentially, I think you mean 'hold fire'.

A 'hang fire' is an unpleasant situation wherein you've pulled the trigger but the primer or powder of the round doesn't ignite immediately... so you're left with a firearm in a dangerous state.

The interview Carolyn gave more or less said there's a wee bit more to come without saying so.

Is there gaps for new routes? Or will there be another based aircraft? Is LPA a base?

The grammar is fine. It was the spelling that went wrong. Though, I wouldn’t expect you to know the difference.

You are the commentator who continually on this forum takes pleasure in pulling up people on their grammar, spelling & punctuation. I saw an opportunity to throw it back at you, not very nice is it? You suddenly realised how someone acting like that can come across as a pedantic bore? The point of this forum is our shared interest in civil aviation, not literacy or linguistics.

I’ve heard that KLM are looking to move to the city and talks are ongoing atm. KLM want either a 05:50, or a 05:55 departure, which BHD cannot give them. This is in order to provide their pax with early morning connections via AMS. Talks of a 737 being based, but the E170 seems more likely.

Also heard a rumour that HOP! also are expressing interest in both BFS and BHD about a daily, mid morning departure to CDG.

Also heard that HiFly have enquired with Swissport and BFS themselves about the possibility of TCX using their A380 next summer, perhaps in lieu of their 330 flights to LAS and MCO. Would be good to see, however with the taxiways at BFS being rather narrow in terms of other international airports, and the sheer size of the 380, I don’t think it will happen

They’re already at City. I agree that their inability to offer an early (ie before 6am) departure goes against their normal MO from other U.K. regionals. Would Hop! go up against EZY? Nice airline. Wouldn’t mind having them in NI.

KLM 737 would be a different operation as it's KLM mainline and the Emb is Klmcity hopper. Similar kind of difference between BA and BA Cityflyer.

Great example of lazy work on the Bfs site tonight, a flight running almost 2 hours late described as "on time". Is there not a delayed button? PARISEZY672421:35ON TIME 23:19
