How about a list of airlines to this airport???
Antonio Look at me I can fly! Martin
Why "Birmingham International Airport (England)", not Birmingham International Airport (UK) especailly when one looks at the list of pages which link here .... ????
We need images of the airport terminals not just the little tram service and logo. A satellite photo would be helpful to show the size of the airport. - Erebus555 12:35, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
I have removed the "New routes" sub-section within the "Airlines and destinations" section of the article. This sub-section is simply unnecessary repetition of new routes from the airport already included directly above (and correctly presented in accordance with WikiProject Airports guidelines). It complicates this section of the article by requiring those who update the "Airlines and destinations" section when a new route is announced to also update a second, identical section which in turn provides readers of the article with no new information and only serves to unnecessarily lengthen the article as a whole. Please post your views here so we can try to come to a consensus before simply adding this section again. SempreVolando ( talk) 18:38, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
British Airways are the main airline at Terminal 2. Ryan flies from terminal 1 and not 2 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.171.129.75 ( talk) 08:20, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
Please note that Wikipedia is not a travel guide and as such individual resturants, shops, etc... within an airport (e.g. Austin Reed, Julian Graves, Yates's Wine Bar, etc...) have no encyclopedic notability. I have therefore removed these in favour of a broader generic statement of available facilities in the terminal in line with this policy. SempreVolando ( talk) 14:36, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
An IP user has recently moved the contents of Birmingham International Airport (United Kingdom) to Birmingham International Airport, it appears that this was done without discussion. It was also moved with a copy and paste move which is not allowed in wikipedia as it destroys the article history. I have asked the IP user to discuss the move, which if agreed should be done in the correct manner. Thank you. MilborneOne ( talk) 20:12, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

I have re-instated seasonal tags on the following Ryanair routes, because they are demonstratably and verifiably seasonal from the Ryanair Timetable:
The Ryanair Route Map does not concur, and clearly uses a different definition of seasonal than Wikipedia, which states at WP:AIRPORTS that the term should be applied to flights that do not operate year round. These flights clearly and verifiably do not operate year round and therefore the seasonal tag is appropriate and has been re-added.
Please do not remove the seasonal tags without discussing here first. Thanks. SempreVolando ( talk) 22:23, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
I've just had read through and some of the info is out of date, but is corrected in subsequent paragraphs.
ie. "when the 2nd runway is built", followed by "2nd runway will not be built". And "a new international pier will be built" followed by "a new international pier has been completed". Can the old stuff be written out to take into consideration building completion and up to date planning decisions? WillDow (Talk) 14:25, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Also, the UAE lounge is now open [1]
Also, there are some points in the History section which perhaps don't belong in either "history" or "future". Thinking something like "present" be added? The fact that the airport is in Solihull and BCC isnt responsible for planning permission, for example, is something that could be moved from history. WillDow (Talk) 11:39, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
If a breach of security isn't classed as an "incident", then does anyone have any objections to a new section being created to cover this? Something along the lines of Security breach or 2007 Security Lapse etc. The "incident" is already covered briefly in the history section, but for something which was so serious, perhaps expansion in a new section is warranted...?
Heathrow has "Accidents and Incidents" as a heading, then "Terrorism and security incidents" as a sub heading. WillDow (Talk) 16:03, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
BHX has a new official website, and it appears now that all the current sources linking to the old www.bhx.co.uk website are now deadlinks. I'm trying to go through one by one to repair these. Any help would be appreciated. New site is here WillDow (Talk) 15:06, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
Plans have now been scaled back to halve costs. Runway will be shorter and A45 will not tunnel underneath the runway. If anyone has the time, can they update the article? [2] WillDow (Talk) 08:09, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
I propose this is moved back to Birmingham International Airport. The page only redirects to this one. Birmingham in England gets priority over the smaller city in Alabama when it comes to naming pages and the other airport doesn't include the word 'international' in its name. Mtaylor848 ( talk) 13:40, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
No consensus. I really hate to do that, but a move to simply Birmingham Airport needs a full discussion especially since the other airport that has the same common name has more aircraft activity. That would mean that the discussion would need to establish primary use. So I see this being being moved to Birmingham Airport, West Midlands, Birmingham Airport, England or Birmingham Airport if it can be determined that it is the primary use. I'll leave it to the participants to decide which direction to go and make the updated nomination. Vegaswikian ( talk) 22:31, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
Birmingham International Airport, West Midlands → Birmingham International Airport — See talk page entry above. New name redirects to old name. The West Midlands tag is superflous and the other Birmingham Airport doesn't actually have any scheduled international flights making the 'international' tag a little untruthful. The fact the new name redirects here shows that this airport has been given priority in naming.
Mtaylor848 ( talk) 10:29, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: no consensus. While it is clear that there is little satisfaction with the current title, the poll shows that the community is still divided on whether or not the English airport should be at the "Birmingham Airport" location; the secondary proposal to move it to Birmingham Airport, England was only very lightly discussed. Because there seems to have been some support for this and because of unhappiness with the current name, I have moved the article to this location. If there is no opposition to this within a week then the location Birmingham Airport, England can be regarded as the article's new home; but if there is opposition within a week then I will move it back and the proposer will need to open a new more specific RM. Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk) 08:02, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
Birmingham Airport, West Midlands →
Birmingham Airport — Or to
Birmingham Airport, England. See discussion above, which was IMO unnecessarily closed when consensus was plainly developing for
Birmingham Airport. This seems to have been unquestioned as the primary topic for that phrase for a long time, it handles many more passengers than the other Birmingham airport and serves a larger and better-known Birmingham, and is known by that name while the other airport is named differently. There seems to me no doubt that this continues to be the primary topic (and nothing to be gained by creating a dab page for just two entries), and therefore should carry just that as its title; but if for some reason it is found not to be, then please change the disambiguator to England (which everyone understands) rather than the confusingly overprecise West Midlands.

On this article it said that airblue stopped it routes on 2 December 2013, yet after looking on the airlines website and looked at the flight schedules it still say that it fly's to BHX as far as 12 January 2014. I have found no information that airblue has stopped the route?? I think the airblue routes should stay on the article until it can be conformed that the airline has stopped flying to BHX.

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

I use this airport often, as it's convenient for me and I travel a lot. I have noticed there is a lot of information out of date. The Birmingham Airport official website is quite comprehensive with information about passenger destinations: http://www.want2gothere.com/bhx/destinations/
I am planning to go through that website and updating this article accordingly, to update the small number of outdated pieces of information. Brumalicious ( talk) 14:42, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
Seasonal flights by the current project consensus are those which do not operate every calendar month of the year. For Jet2 Krakow and Prague flights these do operate in each calendar month of the year, and are therefore regarded year-round for wikipedia. SempreVolando ( talk) 17:59, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
I'm not an admin but this debate and the consequent edits seems a little unproductive. Could I suggest leaving this to a wiki-admin who you can hopefully both accept as being neutral in the whole matter ? Pmbma ( talk) 18:32, 26 June 2017 (UTC) /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Edit_warring
I agree with the above. An unbiased, neutral admin needs to take in to account what we have both said above (irrespective of the idiotic guidelines) to ensure the best decision is made. Futurepilot1999 ( talk) 18:36, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
Would you be able to direct me to this "policy" you talk of? As far as I can see this "policy" is merely some opinions on the talk page and not anything written in stone. Futurepilot1999 ( talk) 18:48, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

At a point 6 nm from the runway the aircraft had descended to an altitude of 660 ft, which was 164 ft above ground level.
I have removed BH Air from the listning of destinations as I have been unable to find any evidence that they are still flying to Birmingham, or have any plans to do so. Their website doesn't seem to sell tickets (!) but it doesn't really reference Birmingham anywhere, and nor do tickets see to be available for sale anywhere else. I may be wrong, and with some evidence of a resumption date am more than happy for them to be listed again. Mordac ( talk) 22:25, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

Here is the flight schedules ---> [3], 12:00, 3 December 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.69.7.104 ( talk)
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Both Biman Bangladesh Airlines and China Southern Airlines plan to operate at Birmingham Airport in summer of 2014, which was confirmed on BHX website with other news and airline websites. The routes was then removed for known reason. Can some tell me why this is so and if it was and accident to be replied onto the main article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.3.145.27 ( talk) 18:39, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

What has happened to all the references in this section? Could everyone please try to track who made that change. Flyer500 ( talk) 19:29, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
I use this airport often, as it's convenient for me and I travel a lot. I have noticed there is a lot of information out of date. The Birmingham Airport official website is quite comprehensive with information about passenger destinations: http://www.want2gothere.com/bhx/destinations/
I am planning to go through that website and updating this article accordingly, to update the small number of outdated pieces of information. Brumalicious ( talk) 14:42, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
Seasonal flights by the current project consensus are those which do not operate every calendar month of the year. For Jet2 Krakow and Prague flights these do operate in each calendar month of the year, and are therefore regarded year-round for wikipedia. SempreVolando ( talk) 17:59, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
I'm not an admin but this debate and the consequent edits seems a little unproductive. Could I suggest leaving this to a wiki-admin who you can hopefully both accept as being neutral in the whole matter ?

I agree with the above. An unbiased, neutral admin needs to take in to account what we have both said above (irrespective of the idiotic guidelines) to ensure the best decision is made. Futurepilot1999 ( talk) 18:36, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
Would you be able to direct me to this "policy" you talk of? As far as I can see this "policy" is merely some opinions on the talk page and not anything written in stone. Futurepilot1999 ( talk) 18:48, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

At a point 6 nm from the runway the aircraft had descended to an altitude of 660 ft, which was 164 ft above ground level.
I have removed BH Air from the listning of destinations as I have been unable to find any evidence that they are still flying to Birmingham, or have any plans to do so. Their website doesn't seem to sell tickets (!) but it doesn't really reference Birmingham anywhere, and nor do tickets see to be available for sale anywhere else. I may be wrong, and with some evidence of a resumption date am more than happy for them to be listed again. Mordac ( talk) 22:25, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
