Newquay going into winter on a point to point basis (with no codeshares at LHR?) seems just aimed at damaging the Eastern operate PSO on LGW-NQY. Similarly attacking the very niche and govt supported IOM-LHR up against Loganair just seems fairly spiteful and a spolier. These are low volume niche markets that can barely support one carrier in winter, I remain concerned that flybe2 offer nothing new net new in market.
Are zombie-flybe really saying to Cornwall County Council and the IOM govt who subsidise Eastern and Loganair's ops respectively that there's no need to subsidise at all or that they should choose flybe instead?
