Flybe

I see that bmibaby has cut back its Belfast International route to daily. It would seem that Flybe has done quite well in growing its share in the market. My fear for the Cardiff is that Flybe will introduce higher frequency that bmibaby on many business routes and this will leave Baby with a very cost ineffective position, ie cost to run a half or quarter full 737 where BE is using Dash, i accept that many prefer a jet, but in my view it wont be long until baby give up on Cardiff ( which i hope I am wrong).

And by this time Flybe do a SOU & EXT style bully job on the airport..

What does anyone think?
