Re: BOURNEMOUTH

Yep i am really surprised to see that one cancelled even before it got going , what Bournemouth needs is someone like FLYBE with a much smaller aircraft to operate to some of these domestic routes
There is still a demand for places like Belfast ok the load factor each day was about 65 but with a samller plane that would be ideal
Edinburgh and Glasgow also achieved good loads when Euroscott operated an ATR72 a few years back just unfortunate they were not funded enough
With Southampton so nearby operating a good network of reliable srvices on there domestic routes its increasingly unlikely Bournemouth will get a look in and complement these routes unless someone prehaps Rockhopper with there new Jetsreams might be prepared to give it a go , fingers crossed
