Saw this in the Irish Independent....not too sure what to make of it....is it simply a connecting service to Dublin or Cork for onward travel on a charter?

Waterford airport eyes new routes boost

WATERFORD airport is close to a deal which would see the number of international destinations it operates doubled.

Final agreement on the deal is expected soon - it will see planes taking off from Waterford and using another Irish airport as a hub before flying on to Malaga, Faro and Prague.

At present, Aer Arann operates flights between Waterford and Luton, Manchester and Lorient in France.

Yesterday, former senior management consultant at PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) Graham Doyle was appointed chief executive of the airport.

Chairman Nicky Fewer said talks were at an "advanced stage" with an unnamed airline to fly chartered, seasonal flights between Waterford and the three new destinations.

He said passengers had expressed an interest in new routes from the airport which are usually only accessible though Dublin and Cork airports. The new routes will start running in April 2007.
