Route Development & Rumours

[mullion]

When Jet2 base A321neo, well the second one is still a way off and I am guessing end of June before in service so running probably 2 months late and I think only 3 this year

Let’s be honest here.Turkmenistan airlines weren’t going to come here except only for the coronation.I think they aren’t going to bother coming back bhx.

Blue air while they are banned from flying in Europe.There’s no chance of them flying to bhx until approval of permission to fly its wings.

Pia no chance of them coming until they get European permission and uk permission.Except they do offer flights to bhx via.Doha,Dubai,Istanbul,Antalya,Delhi,Amritsar and Jeddah.That’s probably why they aren’t flying due to high population at bhx.

Wizz air.Disappointed they haven’t expanded their fleet and routes but have increased their flights to it’s known destinations

Turkmenistan - Good chance they will be back in 2023
Blue Air - Have gone bust
PIA - Not allowed to fly to Europe but hopefully they will resume similar to last summer with a third party.
Wizz - Do very well on their Eastern European routes from BHX but I think we dodged a bullet them not setting up a BHX bases (just ask Cardiff)

Aren't you contradicting yourself?

Turkmenistan are now back at Delhi with Amritsar 'likely to resume end of 2023'. There have been rumours of them coming back to Birmingham around July but there were similar rumours last year and obviously we saw nothing.

Purely rumours at the moment, but SeanM1997 site is hinting at new slot applications for Ethiopian, Play and Air India, with BHX in with a chance along with other major UK airports.
One to watch!.

These are allegedly in the MAN slot applications not BHX !

Don’t think Ethiopian has any interest in BHX, and certainly PLAY doesn’t

 

[Birmingham Aviation]

Eurowings are suspending their Prague to Birmingham at the end of summer.This is a sad time for BHX.

Interesting that the LH group are cutting services or just treading water from BHX more than any other UK Airport.

Also apparently the FRA capacity is the same as it was 6 years ago..

PLAY will only come in if they get a very cheap long term deal from BHX I suspect.

I believe from previous reports PLAY did have slots but then took them out and went for MAN
