With Loganair including luggage in their fare (and they need to shout that from the rooftops) I hope these routes are a success.
Yet to try Southend but I agree, Heathrow is good for connecting flights, not getting to Central London. Unless I go to on client near Paddington I’d sooner LCY or GTW (Thamselink to Farringdon). Happily add Southend to Stratford for Central/Jubilee or Liverpool Street to the mix. Clan Loganair points earned through work travel also fills the hole left by no Avios redemptions!
does anyone know what the hand baggage size is like on the E145? Quite like walking off and and out and not hanging about for a bag for an overnight trip (however free it might be).
