Yup totally agree with yourself and apaul. I flew on the HLX CGN route when it operated, and loads were always good, funnily enough most pax were Germans so there must be demand from both ends.
I now use LH to Dus now and the 2 x daily schedule is brilliant! Again really good loads. LH are defo pleased with this route, I know they have mentioned that it could be used as springboard for some new routes in the future, but it could be a long way off.
In the meantime I wish BE would look at expanding their base, as they too have earmarked potential German routes. Hopefully, Hanover will continue, its operated for years now, dont know whether Air Berlin are in the frame seeing as though they have absorbed TUI. If not it would be a very good starter for BE as they already have a presence there from SOU and BHX.
We shall see eh?
