I agree that Bournemouth could do with a more frequent bus but I don’t agree that this is the reason the route is not doing well. If it is because SOU has a train station, then how do islanders deal with airports like Exeter, Newquay, Bristol and Cardiff which have no train station and are further from train stations than BOH is. Bournemouth airport has an infrequent bus but you can catch it on your arrival from Jersey. I didn’t check departure. Bournemouth has so many wealthy retired people that wouldn’t take the bus anyway - apparently this is the group of people that most supports the Channel Islands market. So how can this route not be working?
