EasyJet have launched their summer timetable but the BFS/LPL route currently says... ... what is going on?

BFS to LPL now available during this period. Probably a delay in putting on to the system
still some strange schedules- AMS only showing three weekly (May and June) as well as ALC three (May and June) weekly

Yes, it seems to be fine now. :ok:

easyJet - Summer 2023
 

Looks like easyJet may be adding a 8th aircraft (2x A319 & 6x A320) for Summer 2023 going by timetable for a Monday morning in July 2023:

Have the flights been renumbered?

Looks like they have been re numbered
BFS LPL currently for winter in 600 range (EZY 604 EZY 605 etc)
From summer schedule changes to 70 range (EZY 77, EZY 78 etc)

So Wizzair have gone from Bfs?

UK's Fly Atlantic eyes Belfast transatlantic hubhttps://www.ch-aviation.com/portal/g...lusive_big.jpg

Headline in an online journal pictured with A321NeoLR.
Haven't things changed significantly in this space. NI apparently is a big spot for internet security software business/tech. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Just this add to the potential of re-establishing the linkage to New York?

Not sure who this outfit is, but I think this link is worth another attempt. But like previous discussion I think we need a network carrier. I wouldn't rule out JetBlue in the near future.

Is Ryanair adding another aircraft at Bfs? Big increase in frequency on a number of routes.

They must be making a few tweaks. Noticed on a Friday, for example, 2 flights to Paris and 2 to Girona, however same flight numbers, and one flight greyed out. Faro daily, but again some days greyed out. Other destinations similar. Hopefully a sign of healthy forward booking?? One can hope….

Ryanair
 

Just looked at FAO and GIR in June 2023, both on web and app.

Girona now available to book 6 X weekly
Faro now available to book 7 X weekly

Still some days greyed out on other routes?

So at the minute on 28th March there are departures to:
Girona @ 5.45am
Stansted @ 6.00am
Krakow @ 7.00am.

Some flights now start on 26th. 3 based?

Gdansk
 

In one of the greyed out flights the Friday flight from Gdańsk is operated by Buzz

To be realistic IMO, neither this carrier or a BFS NYC route will be getting off the ground any time soon.

Agreed.

The director started his career with British Airtours, then Cathay, and has been associated with several low-cost startups around the globe. I don't think the launch target is anytime prior to 2024.

EZY
 

Looking at Easyjet for next summer, third weekly flight to Corfu for June July and August

Agree with BFS BHD - I looked at a Tuesday morning departure in August and 8 aircraft needed

Easyjet 8th based aircraft coming a lot sooner than summer 23.

Don't see any sign of a 8th aircraft before the start of Summer 2023 schedule.
Is there a announcement due soon for the 8th aircraft to be added during the Winter 2022/23 schedule?

Ryanair

Will be interesting

Belfast International Airport and SSP To Trial The ‘BellaBot’ | Northern Ireland Travel News (nitravelnews.com)

Holabot is in use in the Aspire lounge in Liverpool already. This is probably going to be rolled out further

East Midlands only 4 weekly
Malaga now showing 5 weekly
Gdansk, Krakow & Milan still showing the increase flights as 'Sold Out'

Just noticed this on Jet2 Website:

All 'Bold' destinations seem to have increases in flights and Naples seems to be a 'New' route. Looks like a 4th based aircraft for Summer 2024. I believe Winter 23/24 already needs four aircraft.

Belfast International Airport 19 sun destinations on sale (peak number of flights per week in brackets) Antalya (2), Dalaman (3), Tenerife (3), Lanzarote (3), Fuerteventura (1), Gran Canaria (2), Reus (3), Alicante (3), Malaga (3), Palma (Majorca) (5), Ibiza (3), Menorca (1), Faro (Algarve) (4), Crete (Heraklion) (1), Rhodes (1), Zante (1), Paphos (1), Verona (1), Dubrovnik (1) Over 40 departing weekly flights during peak periods


As it reads now - shame as Naples would have been great

Still showing here

https://www.jet2.com/news/2022/10/Su...l_ten_UK_bases

That link is a older press release. That one was released Wed 12 Oct 2022.

The one I posted was released yesterday...

Yea saw that but not seen Naples announced or on sale, if it's correct it's a replacement for Verona?

Gdańsk and Krakow now available for booking 3 weekly
one flight from Gdańsk and Krakow each being operated from Poland by Buzz

Krakow is 4 per week

Ryanair to Milan now showing 5 weekly flights on sale.

Can they fill 5 weekly to Milan??

Two Ryanair flights departing tomorrow morning from BFS to Malaga and Tenerife
are these charter flights?

Both of them flights are Prestwick flight numbers and times. So maybe a fuel stop?

Ryanair
 

Looks like FR have reverted back to original schedules for summer 23
Paris/Milan 2X weekly
ALC, GRO, AGP 3 X weekly
FAO 4 X weekly
UK destinations same as before

Interesting Gdansk (2 X weekly) and Krakow (3 X weekly) with one flight still operated by Buzz

More changes for Ryanair show some of the STN, MAN and EDI flights are now operated by non based aircraft.
Also appears to be a couple of gaps showing.
Looks like it will still be just the two aircraft. No signs in the timetable to show a third aircraft.

There are some serious changes being made. Almost all routes off sale on the web site. But why would they load all the extra flights if something wasn't being planned? They would hardly load all the extra flights for fun.

I'm hearing the words Lufthansa , Belfast and Frankfurt in the same sentence this week. Anything been heard on this front by anybody?

seems there is an LH UK route announcement due. BFS might seem reasonable.
