D-AGRA arrived using the the flight number BM9366. Tomorrow’s STN flights had for the last week been showing as been operated by a S2000 until early this morning. Now showing as operating ER4. I am guessing that we will see tomorrow’s flights operated by this aircraft. If that’s the case then how long is this aircraft staying for??

D-AGRA is registered to ProAir Aviation. This aircraft operated for BM back in September for a couple days ex BRS. Does anyone know for sure what is the problem with this route... guessing it’s crewing shortage.. If it is surely it makes sense to lease a aircraft for a longer period until they sort it out. Rather than having a different aircraft every couple of days?.

The airport won't work until the economy works and the economy won't work until Stormont stops discriminating against the 2nd city and supports a proper university with 1/3rd of the Northern Ireland students (15-18000 students), decentralises thousands of civil services jobs outside Belfast and sets ring fenced funding and targets for Invest "Belfast". Anything else is a waste of time and the A5 and A6 roads only facilitate further centralisation as opposed to leading to increased investment in the city and West of the Bann.

CAA Stats January and February
January 2018;
LDY handled 14,595 pax in January, which represents a 26% decrease since last year.
All three routes experienced a fall in passenger numbers;
GLA (-3%), LPL (-24%), STN (-50%)
LPL had the highest load factor (74%) followed by GLA (70%) and STN (67%).
February 2018;
LDY handled 14,977 pax in February, which represents a decrease of 29% since last year.
There was a sharp decline in passenger numbers on all routes;
GLA (-11%), LPL (-22%), STN (-52%)
LPL had the highest load factor (78%) followed by GLA and STN (both 72%).
I posted the total number of scheduled seats for sale in 2018 from LDY back in January, but a lot has changed since then, so here are the updated annual seats for sale;
GLA: 83,956 (80,514 + 3,442)
LPL: 66,528
STN: 66,248
EDI: 17,010
PMI: 2,646
There are 236,388 scheduled seats for sale in 2018.
LDY has handled 29,572 passengers on its scheduled services in 2018 so far. With 41,040 seats available over the period, the average load factor is 72%.
Given the airport's performance so far, it seems highly likely that passenger numbers will fall below the 2017 figure of 193,981. I estimate a figure of between 180,000-190,000 pax in 2018, though 2019 should see the airport just about surpass 200,000 pax again, based on current route frequencies.

Load factors are down on both GLA and LPL, despite a reduction in flights. This doesn't bode well for the future of LDY-LPL, and if LDY-EDI performs worse than LDY-GLA, I can see Ryanair axing that route too. Ryanair really need to have an excellent summer at LDY, or their threats to move all operations to BFS could indeed become a reality.
Load factors for STN are the same with bmi Regional this year as they were with Ryanair last year which is a positive note, even though gross passenger numbers on the route have halved.
