What should Flybe do?

Flybe

I think this has been discussed before - but I agree with your view.

I accept it's yield that counts but I was at BHX in early January and saw the flight to Porto depart, with a load factor of...

Direct China Charter flights - this summer

I've had an e-mail from BHX today stating that China Southern is to offer a short series of charter flights to Beijing this summer (between 22nd July and 6th August), using an A330.

Not a long...

Jersey - cyflyer

cy-flyer - open-air viewing at Jersey is no longer possible (I confess that I don't recall it anyway) from the terminal.

The upstairs viewing area is pretty good - obviously it's all enclosed,...

Jersey spotting

Jersey still has its viewing area on the first floor of the terminal building, but it is enclosed and is only available when airside. The entrance is a little tucked away, and is immediately after...

LYS

I recall flying to Lys a fair bit back in the Maersk/Duo/BA Citiexpress and Connect days. As you may expect, the service seemed popular on a winter weekend (I remember the ERJ-145 being packed with...

An interesting debate. If I may add my thoughts:

Passenger figures - DXB

Interesting that Dubai was 'only' 76% load factor in October.

I know it's only a snapshot but I flew BHX-DXB return earlier this month and Business was full both ways with Economy pretty busy too....

IAG

It may be that demand for airlines to land at BHX has decreased in recent years but this may just be because it was one of Mr Walsh's airlines that caused that, by pulling out of regional ops. Would...

Maersk/BA

To give one example that comes to mind straightaway of a route initially started by Maersk and then 'transferred' to BA would be BHX-FCO. I think Maersk operated 737s down to FCO for a while before...

Iberia - am I being too cynical?

Is it too cynical to suggest that IAG would rather have people from GLA and MAN connect to flights via LHR than MAD and perhaps that is why the flights have been cancelled? Do LHR and MAD offer...

Flybe

An e-mail to me this morning from Flybe confirms that the 2 based aircraft at EMA will indeed be EMB-175s.

At a quick glance at the schedules, it seems as though the GLA and EDI routes (and...

Daza

My view is that it's all about risk. I should imagine Flybe think there is little chance of Baby continuing at EMA and so are effectively staking a claim at some of their 'preferred' routes,...

Thanks to OltonPete for working out the schedules on Flybe's French regional routes from BHX for '12.

I'm not sure if the glass is half-empty or half-full. Initially when next summer's timetable...

Two terminals

Envoy 320 - I agree with you insofar as an extra £1 charge will not in itself make people choose a different airport to fly into/out of but it all adds to the mix.

Trollies

It's hard to see what is trying to be achieved by charging for trollies, apart from the obvious of making money. I can't believe trollies will bring in that much revenue, surely?
