They tried other routes from BOH to Grenoble and Kraków back in 2007/8 but they didn’t work out. Interesting considering Ryanair is making Kraków work from BOH ten years later.
EasyJet would surely be talking to both BOH and SOU about S19. When does easyJet go on sale with S19?
Shamrock, just my observation, but I do not think BOH fits EZY’s profile as well as SOU does. As others have said, the Geneva route is operated by their Swiss unit who seem to operate slightly differently and will operate into various airports on the odd route. The UK unit only seems to operate from airports that can sustain a sizeable base. BOH has never been able to sustain a base, especially on business routes. People forget EZY is as much about business traffic as it is leisure. As mentioned before, EZY probably see SOU as an oportunity to grow their market share outside the slot restricted London airports. It’s pretty much as near to London as Southend is. BOH looks like it will always be an airport for the tour operators, nothing more.
