It looks pretty certain that Flybe's BHD-BRS has been dropped for the winter.
At present the a/c (DH-8-400) positions into BRS mid morning from BHD on a revenue-earning flight before working either BRS-Bergerac or BRS-Bordeaux (depending on day of the week) and returns to BHD from BRS around teatime following its return trip to France, again on a revenue-earning flight.
Bergerac and Bordeaux have apparently been dropped fror the winter as well so it seems Flybe don't think it worthwhile to operate BHD-BRS-BHD on its own.
Until last year there were three daily Flybe BHD-BRS rotations, reduced to one this summer.
Flybe have undoubtedly been seriously affected by the three daily easyJet BFS-BRS rotations. They tried manfully to compete for a couple of years or more but seem to have now thrown in the towel.
