The Freedom web timetable shows the flights being operated by Excel and Air Malta and, as a bristolian says, there appears to be enough of them to provide work for two aircraft for most, if not all, of each week next summer.
They all commence from BRS, albeit two or three do a 'W' rotation to EXT in between BRS outbound and inbound, a further clue that the a/c will be based at Lulsgate.
My only doubt about all this is the prices being charged for seats. On the routes that easyJet also fly, such as PMI, ALC and AGP, my test bookings for identical dates next summer showed easyJet to be much cheaper for the dates I tried.
The full list of routes is: ALC, ACE, CFU. DLM, HER, KGS, LCA, MAH, AGP, MLA, PMI, PFO, RHO, SKG, JSI, TFS and ZTH.
None of the destinations to be served are new to BRS and I am not sure whether tour operators will also purchase blocks of seats as well as individuals booking seat-only.
