Coasting
I am sorry but you are incorrect, the advance booking I have been told (from someone very close to this in authority) were more than expected and for a new route were doing very well, much on par with every other established AA uk route!
The good people of the Northeast had taken very much to this route and are fed up with having to travel via another airport! We in the Northeast don't have the luxury of choice for direct transatlantic like some airports do!
Ah well I am taking the refund, keep it for an airline that can see the vast potential the Northeast has!
