  I need to go to Belfast next month - I can either do flights to Belfast International with easyJet, which are nice and cheap, or fly into Belfast City with easyJet and pay a bit more.
  
  Is it worth the extra?

    Arturo, I have just got back from Belfast, so I will update our content over the next few days. I would always choose City over Belfast International, if only for the great views of the city and its impressive geographical setting. You can also jump in a cab and reach most of the central city area for less than £10 - imagine trying to do that in London or Manchester!

  I think people really under-estimate the dramatic setting that Belfast sits in. Flying in is usually good from any angle. My favourite place to sit is on the right hand side on flights out of Belfast City that head over the cranes and then hook left to go back towards London or other airports in England.

    I agree entirely, I took my first flight from Belfast City just after New Year, and even with low cloud and rain, the night-time glimpse of the city was stunning. I imagine that any flights to Scotland hook right pretty quick, especially in a Q400 turboprop, so you'd want to be on the left?
    
    Can any readers comment?

  I used to be able to enter a destination, then the site would bring up all the airlines that fly from Belfast to there. Now I have to scroll through numourous pages to see the detaination and keep scrolling in case it is covered by another airline that is later in the list. This is not ideal for someone who likes to compare carriers. Please advise.

    Ruth,
    
    1) You can narrow down your search - start typing a destination name - eg "Mal" will bring up flights to Malaga and Malta - "Mala" will take out the Malta flights. You can also view all flights by country, however as Belfast has two airports, column space is limited. You can go to the page for either airport, and then just display flights to Spain, and so on. You can also view by airline name, and any column can be ordered A-Z to your choice.
    
    We think this is an improvement on the massively long and repeated tables of the old site - but 10 listings may be a bit restrictive, and we are considering increasing it.
    
    Thanks for your support.
