Is there any news on what is happening to the other german routes. i.e. FRA, STR, DUS and HAJ. If they are not going to continue the FRA and DUS with multiple daily rotations then there is really no point continuing at all. However, with ten nightstops this month and regularly carrying single figures on the earlies out of FRA a reduction to day trips would seem a sensible money saving idea ! (Plus I don't want to do the nightstops !).

I am sure the German 145 routes could make money for Fly Be when unshackled from the BACON/BAR cost base. A half hearted load of intermitent Q400 services will be seen off by the competition pretty quickly. Still it's their train set now and I wish them luck with it. On balance I have decided not to come along for the ride.

Good luck to all who are taking the next generation airline forward. And as I said previously try to be NEW Fly Be rather than ex-anything. It will make life much easier in the long run.
