Sun Air will not work at SEN. It is probably the airline in Europe with the strongest focus on business / high yielding pax - to an extent that they operate an extremely expensive aircraft type nobody else flies on chedules any more with extremely low utilization. It really only works from bases like Billund and not from an extremely competitive London base at SEN.
