Advantages: Everything - but punctuality

Disadvantages: Punctuality ain't so good

bmiBaby is the low-cost airline bought to us by 'BMI British Midland Airways'. The budget company operate Boeing 737's from East Midlands, Cardiff International, Manchester, and soon to be Teesside Airports to numerous UK and European destinations including the popular Palma de Mallorca, Alicante, Malaga, and Faro airports. Also the company have had an excellent success story, they are the FASTEST GROWING LOW-COST AIRLINE IN EUROPE, and officially Europes 3rd LARGEST LOW-COST AIRLINE!!!

I have put together many news resources as well as my own personal experience to help dooyooUK people make better decisions. For more information on bmiBaby flights visit:

***BMI BABY SMASHES FIRST YEAR SALES TARGET - www.eyefortravel.com***
Tony Davis, managing director of bmiBaby has to say
"To be heading towards this milestone ahead of schedule is an enormous achievement for us and I am proud that we have proved the critics wrong. We are a successful airline in our own right, bookings are very strong and we are looking forward to soon reaching the one million mark. bmibaby is now operating 26 routes from the UK across Europe, this will increase to 31 next month with the introduction of more services from both of our UK bases."

This basically means that bmiBaby have been so popular over the past year they have succedded and passed their sales target mark. This is a very positive point about the airliner.

*** BMI BABY BOOMING AS THOUSANDS FLY - www.icwales.co.uk***
More than 28% of the passengers flying from Cardiff International Airport in bmiBaby's first week in operation at the airport were carried by the low-cost carrier.
They carried more than 1/2 the scheduled passengers flying out of Cardiff last week, yet their first day was disrupted by extreme weather conditions the first flights to Malaga and Alicante did depart approx. 1hr. 20mins. behind schedule.
Passengers
returning on bmiBaby flights into
Cardiff International last week were said to be very pleased with the airlines services.

So there are two and more news articles coming as soon as I find them.

I'm sure by that you can see that bmiBaby is a highly recommended airline and look out for them coming to your home town soon as they are now seeking a third UK base for the Summer 2003 season.

After flying with bmiBaby myself to Edinburgh this week I found that the company were very, very helpful, and their punctuality was very good. I would personally highly recommend the company to anyone who wants a safe and great experience!

You put together a good op but your ratings would be higher if you had a personal experience of this service.
