Would any airline make short term plans based on that without being prepared to take a hit? I have yet to see any good news about them just more bad and some very recently..

I Would take that above tuning in to Zoe Ball :)

Actually BRANDson would be more fitting.

Do you mean Richard Branson ?

Cuts and route duplication.Worrying.

I thought long haul took years of canvassing and negotiation before coming to fruition,and that is with airlines who supposed lhave BHX on their radar. That's what i keep reading when when a rumour starts and nothing happens:playful:

I'm reading these posts about the fear of an airport relying on one airline but nobody has mentioned the Elephant in the room. Flybe have not been mentioned and although they might not be as dominant in the passengers numbers as some airlines are at other airports they are in terms of...

12 bore. Make all of them take notice. Stop aiming at one target today and a different one tomorrow and missing them all.. Ditch the long haul target for the time being.
