Maybe Eastern will be as to increase their frequencies on these routes as the year goes on, but I'm not particularly sure if they have the aircraft to do so unless the E190 starts getting used for more scheduled services, as one of the ATR has gone to Newquay for the Gatwick PSO.
I, genuinely, thought those routes would certainly be an instant win for someone like Blue Islands out of Southampton. Have pre-bookings been that bad or is it something else?
