So apart from the strongly suspected Jersey route which i think is a good thing (am v surprised there has not been a Jersey route from LHR for sometime and i hear that Jersey Airport has some sort of route development fund up and running of which this would have qualified) are the LHR slots soley going to be used for this or anything else too??.
In addition has the EMB at Leeds been earmarked for anything?.
Whilst it seems slightly odd for BMI to pull a destination like CDG completely from its schedule why compete with 2 other airlines at LHR which fly many times per day (BA/AF) and also against Jet2 at LBA - seems the right thing to do at LHR to pursue a route they will have sole operation of. I suspect the knock on effect might be a reduction in pax numbers on flights to LGW and LCY from JER providing BMI price correctly but it will also generate new customers who cant get onto the smaller capacity aircraft operated by BA/BE/VG into London.
