Ambrosia - good name, awful first post.

Utter tripe AND its not funny for the staff at BRS to read such made up fantasy. Even if it causes alarm for a mere moment its still causing needless worry for people. I'm one of them - were your post to be true I would have to sell my house, get my partner to leave her job and move away from all my friends. Imagine my reaction on reading your totally made up posting... It took but a moment to check the facts and dismiss you but nevertheless your moment of PPRuNe rumour baiting does cause distress to people and thats not nice.

Exeter may have superior roads leading up to it but frankly its half surrounded by the sea and nobody lives on that. Bristol attracts pax from South Wales, way up the M5 to Brum, way down the M4 to London and way across all the West Country. Exeter couldn't hope to cover as much GDP as Bristol so its highly unlikely BRS routes would be moved to Exeter.

A Bournemouth rumour would have better legs as being so much closer to London its GDP coverage is respectable.

However, I think you will find that easyJets sights are now very much focussed on continental horizons. Bases in France and Germany are seeing loads in the high high 90%'s and epic forward bookings. Tinkering with an already well performing domestic network is - I imagine - well down the list of priorities.

Cheers
