Mme - Bru

It's disappointing to see that the BRU flights are going out less than quarter full on average but-like I said at its launch-its hardly surprising to see the route struggling.

The question remains..does Teesside need a BRU flight which is shaped towards business travellers? The area is harldy awash with companies with links to Brussels and apart from the odd MEP who is really going to use it at such high prices? Certainly when I have looked at fares they are ridiculously high so as sad as it is I don't predict BRU much longer particularly if BRS didn't last a year and had more potential in my opinion.

I really like Eastern as an outfit and they have shown loyalty to DTV in the past but for a route to survive that they offer at their prices it needs to have the same potential and demand as ABZ which really leaves only possibly BFS or BHD.
