Easyjet Paris flight afaik is quite rotten timings. Evening dep from BRS and 9 pm return from CDG. Useless for business travellers unless they wish to stay overnight. Any AF offering with early amflights will be brilliant for BRS and fulfil the hole left by BMI

Winter fares on EZY to Gibraltar were quoted anecdotally by passengers this week as£30 each way. How long can airlines absorb these losses during their winter periods.

Runway shut until 18:00 Snow expected until 21:00 hrs My prediction is that airport will not open until Saturday

Runway closed until 12:00 noon. If things improve they may consider opening.
