I think Air Southwest have been replaced by CityJet for the Jersey flights this summer, not sure if the Baboo flights will be back again though, rumour has it the loads have been around 55% so far.
Just booked three sets of flights with Varsity for March and April, all very smooth and professional. If this Halestead chap is behind it he seems to have learnt his lessons from a few years ago, let's at least give him some credit, a year is a long time in politics and even longer in aviation. When did all that alpha air stuff happen anyway? I seem to remember it was a long while back. Wasn't there another young lad trying to run flights from Liverpool too a few years back?
Let's just sit it out and see how it goes. Oxford is a growing market. I look forward to my flights with great anticipation and I think we should be supporting new businesses during times like these.
