It does seem odd that very little pruning of the network was carried out over the past six months or so. I had assumed this indicated that the route structure as it stood was fairly robust and worth retaining until the time that Virgin Connect became the trading style and could develop it further. The fairly recent announcement of new domestic routes from SEN seemed to suggest that their plans of last year were still on course.
