Even though Thomson are not flying at the same time, without a shadow of a doubt the increased capacity of a 737 (149 pax depending on the class of a/c) five times a week will effect BMI Baby.
Giving the consumer a much better option to fly whenever they want rather than on Saturday as S06. Thomson did not pose a threat last year to BMI Baby as all their flights were full with old leasure travellers. But this year i am guessing that there will be empty seats on the WW - Jersey. I maybe wrong but we'll just have to wait and see on this one.
And if you read the thread closely there is no mention of direct or indirect competition. But if there is an opourtunity for WW Passengers to be lost and travel with TOM then maybe the Jersey route will disapear off the WW scheduling for S08 or maybe an icreased frequency by WW. Will there be a price war on this route? this could be interesting and are WW allready regreating not putting in the Fourth A/C at WW?
