LBA has been in the news recently around lengthy queues for pre-flight security screening. The airport website suggests arriving 2 or 3 hours in advance. Those flying to southern Europe for a week on the beach might put up with this.
How does it work however for those flying with flyBE to London ? It seems like it would utterly scare off any potential pax into taking the train instead.
If flyBE see lousy loads for more than a month, somebody will wonder if linking Leeds to Heathrow is perhaps not a good idea. I struggle to believe that a route to a major hub should be sacrificed in order to add flights to the beach
