I dont see the problem at exeter being as big as you make out .

Think I'll side with Goldeneye on this one.With a one stop each way for STN pax & if other flights through smaller stations are routed in the same way ,i.e. to STN,then surely the higher yield will be generated by the non stop (EXT) sectors, especially if STN can offer a choice of days to fly to Toronto .Thus ,the allocation of seats would be greater for EXT both on the grounds of yield & lack of frequency.The question seems to be as Goldeneye put it "Is there room for the 2 services?"
Another interesting aspect will be pax checking in for two airlines offering multi class service to two different Toronto airports alongside each other at the same time given that EXT has a MAX of 6 check in desks to contain this total operation.(Assuming there is no further clash with any other operator on the Wednesday)
