Stevobeevo,

First of all apologies to NICKHEFF for sidetracking this topic but it is sort of relevant.

Stevo if you think Ryanair will show any loyalty to Bournemouth just because it operates out of there at the moment then I am afraid you live in a parallel universe. Airlines and especially Ryanair will take advantage of what ever opportunities present themselves.

I agree Ryanair wouldn't operate out of both airports being so close, thats common sense. But given that the 737-800 aircraft has no performance problems at Southampton which I beleive it doesn't ask yourself which airport has better links rail and road, modern terminal and a catchment area that would include the same area as Bournemouth.

With recent changes at Southampton they may well decide to have a look.

PS anyone know where I can do a 737 rating?
