BMI Baby Teesside News

Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but here is what I can gather so far for Summer 2005.

Alicante (Reduced to 2 Weekly – Mon/Fri)
Belfast (Reduced to 4 Weekly – Mon/Wed/Fri/Sun)
Cork (NEW ROUTE! 3 Weekly – Tue/Thu/Sat)
Jersey (Increased to 3 Weekly – Tue/Thu/Sat)
Malaga (3 Weekly – Tue/Thu/Sat)
Nice (Route Dropped)
Palma (Reduced to 2 Weekly – Wed/Sun)
Paris (NEW ROUTE! 4 Weekly – Mon/Wed/Fri/Sun)
Prague (Route Dropped)

Looks like we’re still going to be a 1 aircraft base. Not surprised to see the Daily Belfast reduce, but am suprised to see Prague disappear.

Good news on Paris and Cork though!

Don’t know but BE do MAN-SOU and soon LPL-SOU and MAN and LPL are near to each other

But Flybe are the only low-cost carrier operating to SOU from the north-west. They can afford to do that.

But they already do NCL-BHD they might think they are competiting with themselves.

Has the North-east got enough people wanting to go to Belfast to warrant about 3 carriers operating routes.

NCL-BFS easyJet
NCL-BHD Flybe
MME-BFS bmibaby
MME-BHD Flybe?

Flybe could at least do a daily service to BHD

In answer to one of the questions above, Nice was served once a week on a Saturday in Summer 04.

I too am shocked by Prague being dropped.

But at least we have Paris.

I can’t get my head around the rationale of Cork though? Is Cork going to work more than the bucket and spade routes which have had their frequency dropped?

I agree, we need another aircraft or some ‘w’ routes. Personally, I’d like to see Flybe or someone really put some effort into MME; I always get the feeling that with the ad-hoc schedule from Baby (and the lack of aircraft no: 2), that things could go pop at any time.

As an aside, Ryanair will start a daily Rome service in the next couple of months. 🙂

I think MME could do with another a/c, I think some more routes would really work then. Quite shocked to see Prague go as they seems to be very few airports it doesen’t work from, indeed after a couple of months of having it just a few times a day, Jet2 upgraded the LBA-PRG route to daily

I am sure Geneva will be back next winter.

Geneva is a seasonal route – may be back next winter

I notice they don’t have one daily frequency – what effect will this have?
