Well news of the Durham - Brussels connection immediately got a great reaction on luchtzak.be (a Belgian aviation forum), and I know one Scarborough guy working here in Brussels at the European Commission who was delighted to hear about this new Eastern Airways route.

I myself was very surprised to hear such a route announced, especially twice daily (even if it is only a small aircraft)! With the prices Eastern charge they will only be flying business passengers I wish them well, but hold my breath.

If ever I need to render myself in Durham it will probably be with BMI to Leeds or SN Brussels to Newcastle, because they will most likely be the cheapest option...
