Hopefully Düsseldorf has yet to be loaded into the system if not that means there will be no more links from SOU to Germany which is unbelievable really considering at one point or another we've had links to DUS, FRA, HAM (via ANR), HAJ, MUN and PAD.
If only Eurowings weren't so stretched fleet wise as their DHC8's would be perfect for a couple of German destinations from SOU.
We definitely seem to be going backwards at SOU with these recent cutbacks in the destinations.
Wishful thinking but SOU could have seen a few of those routes continued by,
Düsseldorf by Eurowings
Hamburg by Eurowings
Lyon by HOP
Munich by Eurowings
Over the last three decades SOU has lost and gained many routes but it has never been able to reach the full figure of 50 destinations on offer at any time which for an airport having such a large and fairly affluent catchment area is unbelievable.
Previous destinations that have come and gone from Southampton over those decades are,
Alghero, Angers, Antwerp, Barcelona, Belfast International, Berne, Biarritz, Birmingham, Blackpool, Bristol, Brussels, Caen, Cardiff, Cherbourg, Clermont-Ferrand, Deauville, Dinard, Dijon, Dubrovnik, Exeter, Frankfurt, Galway, Grenoble, Hamburg, Hannover, Inverness, Isle of Man, Le Havre, Le Touquet, Liverpool, Malta, Milan MXP, Munich, Murcia, Newquay, Nice, Paderborn, Paris ORLY, Pau, Rotterdam, Split, St Mary's, Teesside, Tenerife, Toulouse, Tours, Varna, Zurich.
That's a lot but obviously quite a few of those destinations would not be possible these days but there are quite a few that are especially if the likes of Easyjet were interested.
