So the CAA stats for Jan 24 are out. The 12 month rolling period shows the airport had 6.031m pax, getting close to its all time high again. The airport added about 74k pax between Jan 23 and Jan 24. In spite of this success, Ezy did manage to reduce the total carried to Lgw by 19% or about 6k pax. They did increase Bhd - Lgw , but overall pax carried from Belfast(both airports) to Lgw was down. Their excellent scheduling on both routes is obviously having the desired effect. Stn was the larges domestic route out of Bfs, that used to be the preserve of Lgw. Shows the impact of FR.

Think today was just easyJet loading the same schedule from Winter 2023/24. New routes and also routes being extended into winter will likely be added soon, as Enfidha was announced as year round but isn't bookable yet for Winter 24/25.

TUI - Summer 2025
 

Dalaman and Antalya no longer on sale for TUI for Summer 2025. Hopefully they are just updating the system and they aren't dropped!

Looks like Ryanair is dropping the 3rd weekly ACE flight (Saturdays) that was due to start in August using a ACE based aircraft.

In July FR seem to have 166 arrivals and departures per week, an average of 24 per day. Not sure what the total would have been last year, but seems to be a bit of an increase. So should pax records fall this year?

Dalaman seems to be loaded in 2-3 times weekly for S25. Its being operated by ‘Other Carrier’. Assume Freebird will do it.

Appear to be a gap now on Monday mornings for S25. Won't be to long of a route as Heraklion has moved to a 1500 departure on Mondays. Maybe Ibiza or Mahon?

Palma now showing on Monday mornings for S25.
