    Hard one as you really need to have been around a while to fully understand their strengths and weaknesses as many would be from comparing them to other airlines probably mainly British Airways and Ryanair.

    They do not have any public strategies with the only info being made available being load stats etc and other things that a Limited Company has to make public.

    Don’t bother writing to them either as unlike Virgin Atlantic or Bmi they wont reply or will reply saying they cannot give any info out.

    I could post a list of strengths and weaknesses but i dont have the time right now. If you want to PM me i could prob give you a brief rundown in Janurary.

    Do you have an Aviation background (i.e. is it a hobby etc) as I would say if it wasnt this could be a hard choice of project!

    You would be surprised how many business travellers are now told to go loco where possible and business reserved for senior managers etc.

    Belfast City does have a tradition of attracting more business travellors (take a look at the terminal at 7-8am on a weekday! Its Hard to move around for suits!) but 40 odd people will be tough for them to find when the overall load factor to cardiff is currently the same. With babys 735 giving over 100 extra seats on the route it will be hard for them to attract passengers from loco market such as leisure and i doubt they will be able to sustain load factors over 1/3rd if even that on BHD route!

    mm bmi baby are going to use a B737 on the route when Air Wales come off it in March when an ATR 42 is currently used. Thats going to create alot of additional capacity at bmi babys “low fares” plus customers are used to booking via bmibaby and some will just keep to the same option as they have used it for ages.

    Air Wales will find it hard to compete. They will need to mimic bmi baby prices to take the customers away and promote heavily within Northern Ireland. I wish them luck but bmi baby will probabaly not take too kindly to this given then sort of pointed out indirectly there is capacity on a Belfast route! Id give them about 4-6 months at BHD max!

    EGAC and EGAA were mad yesterday. They kept swapping for arrivals for a while with City only getting clear of fog after midday.

    Rachel Stevens was on the 0640 Dep from LHR to BHD. She went to land at BHD and then due to fog had to divert to Belfast International. She was not happy!
