Eastern seem to do a pretty good job at damaging themselves!
Logan offer a decent product/service but at prices that are just too high for a lot of leisure travellers.
Hopefully Flybe will find a niche here (initially) with more price sensitive leisure and business travellers that don't need to be on the early and late flights.
