Not sure it’s a disappointment to SOU or one of relief. Loganair are running a reliable service with increased frequencies next summer, up to x 5 daily on GLA and EDI and x 3 on NCL, with healthy loads albeit at premium fares, so the appetite from the airport for BE to enter these routes is probably less pressing. However this doesn’t mean that BE won’t introduce further routes in the future and once their fleet numbers have increased to provide some operational stability
