Pretty sure they will. They have new investors to impress.

It will be a long time before they are back, if ever, which is a shame if AP-BHX is back in service.

The runway will become even bumpier at this rate. Great to see though. Saw a video earlier of an A340 cargo at Bournemouth. One of those would be nice.

Great to see the Emirates A380 twins together on Airport Action today. One day it may happen again and both due for BHX.

Quick search and you can read all about it in the, eh, Sun. https://www.thesun.co.uk/travel/31899866/three-major-uk-airports-up-for-sale-billions/ And here is the TTG articles referred to, which includes the hitlist of destinations....again...

Totally agree. It also happens in a cyclical way. Next year's boom destination may be in decline in a few years. It is a shame that BHX has lost the business sector so much. Remember all those German destinations.... Daily! Hannover, Hamburg, Cologne, Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Munich and I may...

That is very sad news. Great contributor. Thoughts with his family.

Ryanair trot out the same press release after every budget. If passengers are prepared to pay, Ryanair will fly.

Safe journey BrumX. I assume that the digbeth clean up crews will be okay in your absence - if you have not already check out their efforts on the Greater Birmingham thread.... Looking at the first photo, to the right of the squeasyjet left wing, and off topic, but I never understood why when...

Like the backdrop to the stadium, everything is reaching for the skies at the Blues. To be fair, Villa doing well, Baggies could be in line for promotion. Walsall firing on all cylinders...shame about Coventry and Wolves! This is brilliant. Well done everyone. We need more of this. With...

I hope those wingers do not use the airport or any airport ever again. People need to grow up. They have phones to whine on twitter but not the brains to read the news. It is not an airlines job to do that for them. It is airlines job to adhere to the instructions of the police via ATC.

Pilots look so young nowadays.

I have over recent months come to wizz through Airport Action on YouTube. Great coverage but Kevin, I think, can never find the right angle to capture all the action. He did capture five in a queue waiting to depart shortly after the daily 380 today and Maersk freighter waiting to cross the...

Congratulations to the Air Traffic Control Apprentice. Hopefully one of many the airports supports through a critical stage in their careers Second best September then.

It is heading south and diverted to Cairo. On a lighter note, congrats Nethercote. This is just about the funniest posting I have ever read on here. Cheers for making me laugh so much. KRO

I have just seen the same. Just about everything from Europe doing a u turn. Others are ducking to the south of Israel. Those over Iran are carrying on. I just wish people would just live in peace. Stubborn ideology and nations drive me made.

Thanks brumx The BBC featured the topping out the other day https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx25qeg32pxo Thanks for the link to itsyourbuild.

As with PIA, Etihad was not likely to happen. Their route network is no where near as extensive as Emirates, Qatar or Turkish, so I cannot see what their point to point market would have been in the Midlands, that LHR/MAN were not already catering for. They are a relatively new airline, let's...

Is that 60 destinations in total? From humble beginnings....take notice the mighty 🍊

Yesterday to avoid the M6 tailbacks a I was driving back from Wales, I cut through Wolverhampton to Birmingham City Centre. We stopped at the lights at the base of the Octagon. Now I have to confess that it is a building which I have been pretty ambivalent about, sorry BrumX. But having seen it...
