You’re right, but hopefully with the shortage of aircraft at FR now due to the MAX grounding, I don’t think they will be bothered with a marginal route like BVA when they have had no interest in the past. The lack of subsidy is a good point, with double daily AF are certainly going for broke.

Long term I think I’d rather AF on CDG with this twice daily schedule and a host of connections than EI. If EI were to pull off CDG, the replacement would likely be another bucket and spade route rather than a city destination.
