Apart from a little playground bickering on here (giggles) it must be said that the reason SOU has had far more comments than BOH on Pprune is that there is simply more news!
(both positive and negative) >>>
Flybe - closed down, Flybe V2 stop-start, Covid, Runway extension planning delays, tree obstacle planning issues, airport operational restrictions. BA Cityflyer stop-start, then their new routes canned before start up etc etc. Runway Extension finally opens. Lack of local advertising of new airlines and routes...Dramas with Eastern and Loganair. New Ops Director comes, then leaves...
Southampton transport connections, and being impacted by both Heathrow and Bournemouth.
I could go on and on.
With Jet2 and TUI both going head to head at BOH next summer with 4 or 5 based 737-800's there selling package holidays (plus Ryanair strongly increasing their schedules/routes and it's based aircraft) leaps BOH into a league of the likes it has never seen before.
BOH in summer 2025 will be 'Holiday Airport Central', and that's what they do.
We are where we are now at with SOU and what happens next, is pivotal for the future of the airport.
