Any truth behind the BACF LCY-BHD rumours?

Would be interesting given Jersey monopoly on the route.

Heard they thinking of basing a saab 2000 at bhd with upgrade to jet when four established

EI time changes.....
 

So are Aer Lingus trying to sabotage their operation, from 30th October the first Heathrow flight doesn't depart until 0900..... that's great for business and connecting passengers :eek:
Anybody remember IAG doing the same to bmi before they wrapped it up. Definitely sounds like Belfast has been given the kiss of death!

I'm just booking this on Flybe for a few days time.

From London, the timings for business travel are annoying. First flight doesn't get in to BHD until nearly 1000, last back leaves at 1745. There are four flights a day but three of them are squashed together in the afternoon. This might reflect actual demand, of course ... but I doubt it.

I would guess this is down to slot availability as early morning and early evening departure slots are at max capacity. I've always found the weekend flights quite busy with Flybe but not sure about the loads mid week.

Don't know where you are getting that flight info from Aergirl.
According to the Aer Lingus timetable on its website the first flight to Lhr
leaves at 0740 daily. Incl 30 th Oct.

FAO and AGP on sale, daily, BHD based for S17.

EI Summer 17
 

I have looked at AGP for Summer 17 - the prices are strange !

from april to october £109.99 out

and £112.99 back

Give them a few days and prices will be normal. The other routes will follow.

Yup looking forward to see what kind of frequencies

Aer Lingus
 

Understand EI will operate Saturday charters to Verona (06.30) and Salzburg (13.30) over ski season with Salzburg been a new addition this year.

Great news, thanks

A sole use charter or joe public can buy seats on it? Anyone any update on Cityflyer?

The tour operator may allow you to buy seat only.

OSPREY ?
 

2 off these just went in to Belfast City Airport - anyone know why ?

It was just the one. Flew round
Maybe just came in so it would get a mention on the Nolan show

Salzburg is replacing the Jet 2 charter from Belfast with Topflight.

It was a top secret black ops mission. No one saw it and it never landed in Belfast. The event never took place.

Aer Lingus 2017
 

Two based aircraft:
LHR x3
AGP x1 (-2 weekly) and FAO x1 (-2 weekly)

Non based:
ALC x3 (-2 weekly) - DUB operated
PMI x4 (-1 weekly) - DUB operated

I'm sure freq changes are possible so some may appear.
