The airport is doing a little better than what they predicted earlier in the year, they were hoping for about 850,000 by the year end, so nearly there with two months to go. If Paris, Jersey and Glasgow could be reinstated in the future, that would be a good boost. There has certainly been a boost in other areas of revenue, such as executive charters, and training flights, every little helps!

October CAA Stats for scheduled flights
Average pax & Load factor
October starts in bold. September stats in brackets for comparison

EDI 36 Pax LF 74% (37 Pax LF 76%)
BHD 57 Pax LF 79% (55 Pax LF 77%)
DUB 146 Pax LF 77% (145 Pax LF 77%)
ORY 95 Pax LF 43% (90 Pax LF 41%)
AMS 7228 pax carried. Down from 7875 pax carried in Sept but unsure of frequency)

ALC 127 Pax 70% (152 Pax LF 81%) (VY based on 6x weekly flights)
AGP 110 Pax 61% (159 Pax LF 89%) (VY based on 3x weekly flights)
PMI 132 Pax LF 73% (152 Pax LF 76%) (VY based on 2x weekly flights)
FAO 181 Pax LF 96% (160 Pax LF 78%) (FR based on 2x weekly flights)


I've no idea how many frequencies KLM operated and what a/c type.
DUB included the extra 5 flights through the month.
VY flights disappointing, provided the did do the number of flights as above. I can't find any posts within the forum to say they dropped frequencies. A good month for FR to FAO though.

Orly is poor, BHX are seeing regular 180-200 pax loads on this route now after a slow start.

 

[CWL94]

October stats with cancellations and frequency are as below!

VY AGP occupied as 2x weekly
1 EDI flight cancelled
Extra FAO with winter Sunday flight
VY ALC 5x weekly

Orly is poor, BHX are seeing regular 180-200 pax loads on this route now after a slow start.

Had it been given time to mature am sure this route would have worked, but only with added frequencies as 2 weekly just isn’t the best to work with for leisure travellers and nowhere near enough for business travel.

Let’s hope we see Paris return as some point…

 

[CWL94]

AF/Hop has to be the target now!

 

[geoff]

Nice to see the amended figures with 8 routes with in the 70's and 80's percentage loads, Paris would certainly have worked with a smaller plane.

Certainly not good enough loads for A321!
With decent frequency offered I’m sure AF/Hop on E175/195 or A319 wouldn’t be out of the question!

 

[geoff]

I agree with you with you CWL94, I think he route would be very successful on a 175, but the fares would have to be reasonable to compete with Easyjet at BRS.

Orly is poor, BHX are seeing regular 180-200 pax loads on this route now after a slow start.

BHX is an airport with 10 times the footfall so should be filling up 200 seater aircraft too Paris. With Cardiff Paris is a route more suitable for 80 too 100 seater aircraft, with onward connections available and 5 too 7 weekly flights. It really needs Air France Hop! too CDG to make the route work.

Some nice big percentage rises on Amsterdam and Belfast, and a 621% rise on the moving annual total, nice to hear some good news for a change, and slightly better than the airport expected for the year with December figures still to come. Thanks Scottie for your hard work.

My take on the December data from the CAA:

Thank you Scottie, figures are still quite low, but they did reach the airports hoped for target, and at least they are moving in the right direction.
