It was more the F50 I was thinking of. I don't know how well they do on DUB, its not saying a rotation or 2 couldn't be shifted into WAT. Other than Loganair I can't think of many others. The trouble with LTN is lack of anything but a/c too large.

When Dublin Waterford was last flown by Aer Lingus and Euroceltic, the loads were not impressive in any way!
I just cant see any airline planning any flights on DUB WAT even a positioning, as this adds costs...

Anyone know IF and WHEN a London to Waterford route will recommence? Last time I heard they were in discussions with an airline but that could be to take on either a London or Manchester route.

Do bmi regional or Flybe opb Scot have an aircraft sitting on the ground during the day? Would be surprised to see a Q400 by Flybe proper, but who knows. There is no other regional airline with a presence at MAN.
(unless Blue Islands or Aurigny would be inclined to do a Waterford W-pattern in-between their C.I. flight (highly unlikely of course - and I am not sure if they were allowed to:Are they licenced as an UK-airline and are allowed to operate international flights from England?)

If it is flybe then in the week there is a spare Q400 slot at present on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday on the days MAN-NOC or MAN-NTE doesn't doesn't operate and not too dissimilar to the BHX timings.
I thought they might try Luton using the BHX aircraft but that would require considerable schedule changes.

Indeed good news, flights start 22 May. The airport CEO said work on a London Luton service is still on going and said its more complicated as an airline would be basing in Waterford. He said they are still in talks with a number of carriers about it. Lets hope they get a carrier.
do you think we will have a Luton route announced in time for the summer schedule ?

Well done to the Airport, great to see the comeback! Desperate for the Luton route to return, the added trek of going to DUB/ORK is painful compared to how easy a Waterford Luton trip[ used to be
