Eastern
Hi.
Vlm pulled out of the SOU BRU route due to the fact that their pax numbers have not really picked up since taking over the route from bacx. Eastern will start the route on nov 1st with initially at dornier 328 (not scot airways) and then at xmas it will be taken over by the saab with a j41 to follow sonetime in the new year.
Not sure if pax numbers will pick up for eatern either, the businessmen just don't seem to want to travel on a prop. The route has never been the same since it was taken off the bacx emb145 and put onto the dash.
However having said that and not meaning to be cruel to eastern they seem to be able to operate perfectly well with very little pax loads. quite often the sou lba has 2 or 3 on it. can they be still making money??
