Once Air France have overcome their aircraft and pilot shortage then hopefully they might reinstate their own flights without having to rely on the awful Eastern Airways.
Two upcoming examples of demand for a Paris to Southampton link.
On the 10 May we see 55 passengers arriving at LHR from Paris to join the Cunard Line QUEEN ANNE.
On 12 May we see 125 passengers arriving at LHR from Paris to join the Cunard Line QUEEN MARY 2.
These passengers are being coached from LHR direct to the cruise terminals in Southampton.
These are just two examples for next week, there are many other upcoming similar examples.
There is obviously the demand for Paris from Southampton but passengers are either unaware of the current flights or are put off from booking due to the unreliability of Eastern Airways.
You have to give praise to a company not trusting Eastern.
