Not really, they arent making any money on the 321 fleet as they cant fill the seats on it.

Thats silly is’nt it they are swapping a bigger aeroplane for two smaller ones anyone agree

The A321 doesn’t appear to be as successful as it’s counterpart from the Boeing stable

Just out of curiosity, has British Midland operated the A320 or A321 out of East Midlands in the past and if so, on what routes?

Well the A321s are going strong in DUB with no other aircraft scheduled to operate on the route for the next month or so. bmi currently overnight 2 A321s in DUB every friday night.
That’s good to know that the Dublin route is still going strong…

Last year a MYT A320 operated that roster but I cant recall a bmi A321 operating it…
By: andrewm - 20th January 2006 at 23:22
was it not 4 days BFS 3 days dub?
By: RhysD - 20th January 2006 at 23:03
As far as I know, bmi havnt operated charters at DUB for many years…
By: andrewm - 20th January 2006 at 22:22
bmi ussualy base an A321 at BFS for the summer which also i think does the DUB charters too.
By: tommyinyork - 20th January 2006 at 18:57
Depends if tour operators will charter BMI ?

DE is joining Monarch in April
If Delta Echo is going aswell, that only leaves five aircraft. That’s not enough to operate three routes with two A321s each. What are the chances of the remaining aircraft being used on routes to Continental Europe?

Belfast will def keep them. I Know i wont miss DH 😀 its used too often for my liking on the Belfast City route and has prevented me from being on all the A321 fleet 🙁
so far DH, DK, DI, DE.
By: RhysD - 20th January 2006 at 12:59
According to Jethro’s site, Delta Hotel and Delta India are being returned to their lessors in March of this year. The A321 fleet will then stand at six aircraft. Does anyone know the fate of the above two aircraft and also what routes the remaining six will be rostered on? I’m pretty sure they’ll keep one or two for the Dublin route 😉 :rolleyes:

Most Aer Lingus flights if not all are packed all the time. This was the last route I flew on and it was perfect except for the 3 hour delay but the 3 hour delay was better than what the last bmi flight to DUB that night had.
Most PAX on that route are connecting onto Star or One World flights so thats basically why they are full.
With bmi ridding free drinks etc they wont be any better than EI who I personally think have gotten better since the LOCO changeover. And plus the EI fares are normally much cheaper with the odd exception.
By: T5 - 28th May 2005 at 20:29
bmi have no probelms filling thr A321s on the Dublin route.
Doesn’t surprise me when the only other option is Aer Lingus. :rolleyes:
