Still trying to get my head round this one my immediate feeling though is one of suprise that when the original WOW deal was done there was not a caveat written preventing BA restarting the Newquay to Gatwick route in direct competition - unless of course that time period has expired?
I doubt the extra flight will produce many extra passengers since it is the same market as Air Southwest already serve just everyone will get a smaller slice. Is it good for Newquay?.... Yes in as much as there is now competition on the route so fares will be kept down but arguably Ryanair were already doing that.
Let's see what Michael does next on Stansted.
