Worrying times for this company. Once the media starts publicising the share prices and losses from previous quarters the travelling public become anxious about future bookings and the downward spiral begins. It will need some effort to criss this hurdle for this once market leading travel...

So SBAE are not too far off when they claim that non profit making flights in Bristol are being subsidised by the ancillary, read, car parking revenues. To be frank, EZY as a company would not fly me to Bilbao for 50 quid in June, if the airport was not giving them a bung to do so. So it boils...

Is it even remotely possible that BRS could be paying EZY to fly from Bristol even if they are loss making. So EZY sells tickets really cheap, earns no profit from the flight but BRS that makes money from the ancillary parking etc makes up EZY shortfalls. This is surely anti competitive but...

The summer strike season has started French ATC on strike from 7 pm tonite until the weekend, with more strikes planned for the summer. Maybe we need a new thread on strike action so the info is not buried within this thread and can be a useful resource to frequent flyers or holiday traffic.

So announcement was just Easyjet? Or should we be waiting for Turkish?

Paris at 7:30 am-to return by 21:40 flight is a no brainer. I mentioned many times before that their Paris schedules did not suit the business traveller. This is perfect now for business and pleasure.

Its mid April and I get the feeling that the works are delayed. The new admin building in silver zone is far from nearing completion. The new stands by OTB are same stage. The plans were to get them ready by May/June 2019.

Yes i think they will be used from late summer 2019. Afaik the demolition of the old terminal building is not this year.

Extra Zakinthos?

Bristol Airport have published today some gimmicky calculations about 157000 tonnes of carbon that is leaked due to journeys made to London airports by passengers from the southwest and wales. Cant find the link sorry. Can someone also advise them that a lot of carbon could be saved if Bristol...

Todays Flybe Jersey flight showing as cancelled. National news about Flybe problems with dozens of flights cancelled. Strange times in aviation.

Klm AMS diverted from CWL to Brs due to fog. Dublin too.

Exeter was fogbound so few flights were likely to divert to BRS this evening after 22:30.

I remember BRS announced it as a flight to USA and failed to mention the stopover in Iceland.

Wow airline collapses. Left Bristol 2 years ago but now no chance of returning

Have TUI added more seats to their Dreamliners?

The CAA has prohibited the Max 8 from UK airspace this lunchtime. So TUI will be forced to ground its planes based in Manchester. What will be the fallout at Bristol? As TUI has to find alternative planes and may draw from other bases.

TUI has 8 737 Max 8 aircraft. Will they be forc3d to ground them by our CAA?

A GA flight diverted to BRS late last night from London. No details available.

Over the past few months I have seen about 10 staff members from the Indian sub continent who I have not seen before. I guess they are the IT contractors employed to sort this out. From the grapevine I hear that they are not very optimistic of sorting it before the summer. They would have been...
