Still a few gaps in the schedule. Split and Bari were canned
Thank you BALaddy for all the hard work here. Very interesting.
Always very nice from an Ops person perspective to see a schedule laid out like this.

Please - I am not being doom and gloom, just my observations from my experiences
.
Single aircraft SOU based, the Lolo schedule looks a 'very tight fit' with not much leeway for playing catch up - unless access to a back-up aircraft.
(Anyone remembering Air Cymru, or Amber Air with 1, or even 2 planes - yikes the delays took days to play catch up)
Engineering has a window for down time all day WEDS and on some nights.

Goodness!
Night holiday charter flights - That must be a first for SOU in a long time.

On a general positive:
There are a lot of flights here to desirable, and very sellable Greek Islands: Corfu (Paxos) Kefalonia Skiathos (Skopelos Alonissos)
TWO night flights per week to KOS (rather ambitious IMHO) plus mainland Salonika (Thessaloniki, Pelon, Halkidiki)

I await with interest at the SOU Open days to see how, and know more of this operation.
My gut feeling is that they must have a tie-up with a large Tour Operator to sell package holidays.
TUI, nor the obvious Sunvil have not announced any expansion for S19 to fly from SOU (as yet) and it is getting late in the day to announce S19
