Question Transavia landings at EGHI

Was out and about in Southampton city centre this morning (about 11.30-12.00) and spotted two Transavia 737's at about 10-15mins interval (so potentially the second sighting could have been the same one on a g/a) decending through the cloud. I can only assume they were on approach to EGHI (I watch aircraft on this approach all the time and they were bang on the glide slope, so can't imagine what else they'd be doing there).

I didn't think Transavia flew to Southampton, infact I'm fairly sure London Luton is the only UK airport they operate out of. I'm also fairly sure that no-one operates 737's out of Southampton, the flybe e195's are the biggest aircraft to operate out of it usually (and even they use up most of the runway on landing). All seems a bit odd to me, anyone know what was going on?
