I agree it does seem strange. It’s almost like LM, T3 and BI are all trying to scare each other off so they can assume the role BE had of complete control over SOU. It would make much more sense if they just picked the routes that served their existing operations. So LM doing the Scottish routes, BI the Jersey route and T3 the midlands. Ultimately none of these operators have the scale to provide what BE offered to SOU though, we will have to wait for new operator or EZY to fully fill that void. Obviously this is a while off, but I could see a new operator being formed out off BE’s ashes with 20 or so q400s.
