Yes that’s true - I guess they were good from a Cornish viewpoint.

Oddly the only one not retimed is Sat 4 September which I’m on - and yes, good from a Cornish viewpoint as flying up on the Thursday currently is giving a good 2.5 day trip. Hopefully it will remain as is and won’t wipe out our plans for the Saturday.

Not the LCY connection we were hoping for, but BACF is coming to NQY... with twice-weekly flights to Belfast starting 3 July. BA7330 NQY-BHD and BA7331 BHD-NQY - economy only flights, so no more pressure on the Newquay executive cupboard from business class tickets.

Saturdays 0635 from BHD, 0825 from NQY
Wednesdays 1635 from BHD, 1825 from NQY

Prices are fairly high in July and looks like only 2 redemption seats per flight.

It’s good to see IAG using its Own spare capacity to fill some of the EIregional routes in the short term

wonder What will come of the Dublin route

Aren't they just effectively operating the Stobart Air flights for Aer Lingus? Guessing the BHD forward bookings were stronger than DUB because of the absence of quarantine requirements.

It was quite good timing for me! Now I've got a string of car hire bookings to fix

One would imagine flights to Belfast and the coaches/ trains to Ireland are doing pretty well at the moment...

Awful was the original timing of the Sat flight, departing LHR at 0640 in the morning. It has changed about 5 times since then.

EI Regional flights from BHD were, buried deep in the T&Cs BACF flights operated by Stobart as a wet-lease. It was a Brexit workaround as Stobart and Aer Lingus are EU airlines, rather than U.K. ones.

Looks like a decent load on the first flight, looks around 75% full so far and only 3 seats left in CE.

Anyone else on the first flight? It’s actually quite busy - almost 20 in Club and around 90 in the back.

I've got a flight coming up on the BA1350 (LHR-NQY) coming up. I've never been through NQY airport before, and was wondering how long it takes for luggage to come out at NQY!

Usually 10-15 mins. There's only one small carousel though and you can usually see the baggage handler on the other side of the belt.
