I was led to believe (correct me if im inaccurate) that the only BA Connect route that was really profitable was their CDG route? Sure, they fly 5 times daily, but since the introduction of our daily service with aircraft 3 times larger, this must have seriously dented their passenger numbers.

Frankfurt, Dusseldorf and Zurich (although, perhaps a flight to Basel though?) dont really fit the easy way, but with a newly opened base at Milan Malpensa, and previous experience of Munich from Stansted, I wouldnt be surprised to see that you'd be sat on an orange A319 if you need to get to these cities.

Personally, I think Flybe would be dumb to take us on at Bristol, and would be better off doing some more services from Exeter (like introduce some more International services) or as rumoured, take on BMIBaby at Cardiff (You've got more chance of succeeding here Flybe)
