Milan

Ryanair must have been interested as BHX-MXP appeared in the 2019/2020 slot coordination report but as we know these are just intentions and plenty examples where routes have not transpired such as...

175's

Just to clarify a couple of points.

The 175 was never flown in competition with Air France on the BHX-CDG as it was a joint venture and rumour had it Air France insisted on Jets and in general the...

Not before reporting the sad and first departure of the 175 fleet since grounding.

JE left BHX this morning and is currently heading south of France. I have flown on several 175's and enjoyed...

Departures

The first BHX grounded aircraft left today in a generally ramping up of departures this week. A little bit of irony as easyjet started GLA-BHX today one of Flybe's ex high frequency routes.

We will probably never know what has gone on and although there isn't probably such a thing as dead-cert route(s) but the lack of take-up on BHX-AMS & BHX-CDG by other parties is a massive...
