CAA stats for those that are interested for 2017

Top 10 routes were
1) Palma 95 , 093
2) Malaga 73 , 595
3) Faro 31 , 928
4) Alicante 53 , 697
5) Tenerife 45 , 403

Apart from that nothing much to report . Seems to have gone very quiet since the take over from the Rigby group , perhaps they are scratching there heads as to what to do here !!
There website is extremely poor with no social media activity at all now , least MAG had a page with good information
The bus service stops on 6 April with no one mentioned as to taking it over yet
Only good bit of news is the new Paphos route starting in Oct but it may come at the expense of the Krakow route which has been off sale now for 4 weeks , from 1st Feb 19
P & O have 3 new departures to Barbados at the end of 2019 / 20

Markey, the airport is active on Twitter @bohairport rather better than MAG's efforts in that regard

Not really to be honest with you , have a look , just a few tweets since takeover back in December and a few more regarding the snow which seemed to be re hashed and driving the local users mad .....
Just think they have definitely taken there eye off the ball a bit
No advertising about holidays , routes and selling the holidays on offer
There isn’t even an airport travel agency dedicated like MAG had

PFO and KRK
Markeyd, doubt it will come at the expense of KRK as they have shifted the timings of KRK to allow for the service to PFO on Monday and Fridays probably / hopefully just a time lag in releasing March 19
Wholeheartedly agree with you on the social media. Appalling. But then again Rigby is a real estate company and the owner is 80 plus. Probably not driving focus where it needs to be. Exeter and Norwich exactly the same.

Thats fantastic news for Bournemouth with a good selection of new routes which have been needed for a long time now
If TUI keep to the same schedule of flights as in previous years and Bournemouth does not loose any at the expense of these new routes announced then this will take the summer flights back up to 2010 levels when Palmair also operated for the last year
I am guessing that as the TUI aircraft is operating at full capacity from BOH then either they will be foreign based aircraft or TUI aircraft on a W pattern from other UK airports
All will be revealed on the 5 April !!!

Kefalonia has never been operated from BOH before has it? Antalya a welcome return given it operated with high volumes and load factors when Thomas Cook operated it with a 757in 2011. Heraklion also a welcome return that was operated for a number of years before.

Bournemouth handled 31 , 771 passengers in February - 5 % on last year
This can be put down to the loss of the Ryanair LPA route and the Geneva route with Easy jet was also slightly down
Ryanair routes all performed really well and were in the 90 % loads while TUI were about 95 % loads except again Turin ski route which saw average loads of 135 pax use the service
The Barbados route saw 291 passengers out and back on a TUI 787 for P&O cruises
Easy jet saw 6779 passengers use the route down about 1000 to Southampton ? but still good loads as mostly the A319 was used , 141 pax averaged each flight
Southampton saw 4512 passengers
Flybe averaged for example 65 pax then Easy jet averaged 123 pax
Flybe averaged for example 75 pax then Easy jet averaged 113 pax on a A320 , 186 seater

Turin is actually one of the most established winter routes from Bournemouth
It started in Winter 1994 and Palmair Bae 146 300 operated the route on behalf of Crystal ski which in turn has operated ever since using a variety of airlines but now using a based TUI 738
Just looking back at the loads over the past few years and they all seem to be about the average 150 passenger per flight , its operating again next winter so Crystal ski can't be that worried about it .
It probably needs a smaller aircraft really like a Boeing 733 ( Titan airways style !! )
Exeter is getting Zante , Antalya and Crete
Bournemouth is getting Crete , Antalya and Kefalonia
