Those numbers you quote means the routes are loss making for the airlines. The media love to whip up a storm and create headlines all the time. This is not good for the industry.
I positioned myself at the Menorca airport gates so I could count the number of disembarking passengers coming from Bristol, this Tue. 76 pax and maybe a few wheelchair. As schools broke around thu last week for all areas in the SW that was a very low number of pax.
Returned from a holiday in Balearics this week. Both journeys were about half full. Menorca Airport was practically empty with less than 20 % of retail units open in departures.
All staff are currently parking in the multi storey car park, although EZY crew in uniform were seen in the long stay car park.
Incidently, the multi storey car park, which is more expensive and over 4 floors was practically full most of this week, on every floor. Just 3 weeks ago they were...
Heard on grapevine that TUI has written to many travellers in the summer schedules booked out of Bristol that their flight has now been moved to operate out of Exeter airport. Anyone heard this?

After last nights riots in Bristol city centre by the hire for violence mobs it does not augur well for any future Bristol expansion appeal plans. The drum beats at the start of the protests were the same rhythm and percussion sound that features in most the of the videos against Bristol...
It appears Bristol is not one of the 5 allocated airports for International flights from Monday 15th Feb. The designated airports with enforced Hotel quarantine, prepaid on the, CTM website are, LHR, GAT, LCY, BHX. Strangely. Glasgow, EdI and Aberdeen are also in the drop down for Scottish...
There is no food or drinks outlet open at the airport since last week. WH Smith finally called it a day as there were no movements. Only food and drinks vending machines are stocked. A sad first for the airport.
