AUR launched in competition with BCI out of GCI last year, with very low prices which actually stimulated a lot of additional demand. I thought it might cease once they got rid of the ATR42 (G-HUET) which they used for most of these flights, but it has carried on, using the ATR72's (3 of which are brand new).
Until now of course. Although at the moment they are operating the only (1 daily) service between the island and SOU.
The airport will close ,they simply cannot continue without revenue.Let's hope it not indefinite!
