BFS aircraft for Summer 18

Is the aircraft operating BFS-MCO-BFS a MAN based aircraft?

The BFS service is usually operated using a LGW/MAN 744 isn’t it? If so, it won’t be impacted by the new A332 aircraft.

When direct flights are not operating, the BFS service uses FlyBe connections to/from MAN.

All MAN>MCO flights should also still be operated using a 744 A/C as well so again won’t be impacted with the new A332’s.

Sorry, I was just trying to work out if it would position in/out from/to MAN, I dunno why but I thought it was GLA but that just doesn't make sense

No worries. Sorry I was probably getting the wrong end of the stick as well.

I believe the GLA flights do position from MAN as the MAN based VS crew that operate those flights so I suspect BFS is exactly the same as well.

One of two GLA flights have even been double drop flights too i.e. GLA>MAN>MCO, though I think that was only a one off and is not the norm.
