Jabird,
I am not saying that FR plan to open a base at BOH, simply that they might be considering adding a number of routes to their portfolio from BOH. Rumours are always flying around and FR themselves have indicated that BOH will see more routes and linking BOH to their sunnier bases. Especially in Italy.
The feeling that I get from the gossip circulating at BOH is that FR are looking at upto 3 new destinations from BOH. What could be a better time to announce these routes seeing as TOM are going to be doing all the publicity with BOH. FR would just have to announce the routes and let the local media do the rest. Very low cost indeed!
