Could be in order to dissuade SOU expansion which could threaten to eat into the med demand.

Interesting times!
I would imagine for this to be achievable, the airport would need to make some serious investments with regards to the departures & arrivals terminals, especially since TUI are increasing their base numbers. A potential 6 737s departing within an hour of each other would be extremely testing on current infrastructure.

That said, It would certainly be great to see Bournemouth achieving growth on this scale though.
