Are EZY starting a BFS-DSA route from 27th May? I see someone has put it on the airport's WIKI page.

tigger2k8 you are correct. Domestic arrivals baggage reclaim tracks are going airside.

Easyjet BFS-DSA !
 

:=:=
Easyjet doesn't fly to DSA and its not on the wiki site no more.

strategic airlines will not be flying from BFS this summer for Olampic Hoildays. Aegean Airlines take Rhodes from (7/7/12) and Small Planet Airlines take Laranca from (18/5/12)

I see someone has put on the wiki page that jet2 is starting eastmidlands in August, any truth to this?

I wouldn't bother using Wiki as a source, someone has been bored and adding total crap to the BFS page (view the history)..

I also see that someone has put that DHL is to start cargo flights to shannon, any truth to this also?
i do think that that east midlands is a good route to start for jet2, not so sure about shannon though

Wishfull thinking re Jet2 & EMA city to city is not really Jet2 thing these days, one only has to look at WW loads into BFS when Ryanair were operating into City from EMA, 30 was a good load some days!

thats very true inkjet but i would travel to the city aswell if i was getting flights for a fraction of the price of WW with FR
wouldnt be too bad of and option for jet2, early and late flight to bfs then back to east mids for a sunshine route , EMA - BFS - EMA - IBZ - EMA - BFA - EMA
would kill off flybe and hurt WW

The problem is with that is that your aircraft only gets one med rotation in and they are the one's that you can fill and get good sales on board plus baggage fee's, you do of course have a longer working day at BFS.

I think the loads at BFS would support a turbo prop, but not sure a 737 size jet would make money and public transport from BFS is not good into the city a taxi from BHD is around £7.00 and 10 minutes. This is less important if your going on your jolly's for a week. In any event Belfast already has two airlines flying to EMA so what's the point? can't see it happening

I see pax numbers where up 8% last month compared to 2011, maybe we will reach the 4.5m mark, somewhere we havnt been in a long time

Could we see EZE pick up the FCO route from EI at some stage? NI really needs some 'different' routes away from the bucket & spade destinations. I'm currently looking at destinations for my usual 4 day pre Xmas trip and there is nowhere jumping out. I've done AGP, MLA, AMS in previous years. Would have loved Rome this year but hey c'est la vie!

EZY operated Rome in the past and dropped it, so I'd say unlikely. Has it been confirmed that EI are not bringing FCO back for the winter timetable?? With the A319, could this route, if not particularly viable this year be a profit-maker next winter??

In fairness, many airlines have tried the weird and wonderful over the past few years. Some destinations in my opinion were a little hopeful (Budapest), but the likes of Berlin, Munich, Prague, summer Toulouse, etc, all seemed reasonable. Just seems that many of us Northern Irish folk aren't that adventurous, and a summer holiday means two weeks in Santa Ponsa or Bodrum with the kids and Grandparents.... City destinations especially seem unpopular, such a shame...

City destinations might work better from a city airport like BHD, for instance - just a thought.

Sounds nonsense. An airport has the word city in its official title so passengers will exercise a preference to use it to fly to cities or go on city breaks ??????

Easyjet seem to have the bulk of their winter 2012/13 on-sale. Now only had a quick look, but seems that CDG is reduced to X4 week, MAN increased to X3 day, Malta remains at X2 week.

SEN, LTN and LGW still to be put on.

Anyone have any info on TAY14F. Shows a Etihad A300 leaving BFS on Flightradar?

Currently on descent into EGNX

as far as im aware that is the TNT A300... flightradar24 is showing old information on the a/c

wondering if anyone could give me a hand, wot check-in system to Easyjet use at BFS? also how many aircraft do they have based at the airport for S12?


thanks in advance
