The Independent is saying that changes to the train service between Exeter and London have had an adverse effect on flybe.

Demand remains soft, and some competing rail links are improving – in southwest England, for example, new rail timetables introduced on GWR a month ago dramatically improved services from Devon to London, damaging the appeal of the Flybe link from Exeter to the capital.
