I don't think a daily SEN was viable year round, however it seemed to do ok in the summer with an average load of about 75% I was told,
LPL was a non starter from the beginning I think - full marks to them for trying tho.
I agree, i was delighted to hear last year when GCI-SEN flights were announced, especially as i live very close to Southend airport and i have been visiting Guernsey for 30 years to see friends there. However i did think that a daily service even in the Summer was to much capacity and certainly not in the winter months, it should have been about 3-4 flights a week and only April to October, then it might have worked.
