Transavia Landings at EGHI

TRACK
I was at SOU to hopefully photo your arrivals - it was foul- well done to you! The thing that amazed me was that when all 3 crews were asked about diversions they suggested Bristol, Gatwick even Heathrow but nobody seem to have Bournemouth as an obvious 2nd choice. Bearing in mind the enormous amount spent recently on CAT3 and ILS at BOH and that it's only 20 or so miles away surely this was the obvious 1st choice if weather was acceptable (which in fact it was). In fact in the end 2 of the 3 turned up at BOH - proving my point ! Should not SOU ATC have suggested BOH ? I tust and hope it's nothing to do with BAA and MAG . I dont wish to be contraversial - just interested!
