Really disappointing - a real loss to AIA - wonder have hard the management tried to hold on to this route! Obviously not hard enough.
Umm.... like Luton
AIA have some serious thinking to do, but if the city & demand to fly is in decline, and our only industry is in long term decline without any obvious diversification so far, then not sure how much they can do. Maybe focus away from business routes & into other sectors (but what?).
Main industry in decline > people made redundant > less demand to fly > less routes & freq offered > less demand to fly......
