bmi regional flights and information

Airline Overview

Aberdeen-based bmi regional is the local arm of UK airline bmi. It operates from a number of airports outside London, flying smaller planes than its parent operation (it has an all jet fleet of Embraer 135 and 145 aircraft). Most of the airline's flights are from Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Leeds to destinations across Europe such as Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Lille. Bmi regional was the most punctual scheduled airline in the UK in 2006.
