Nov, Dec & Jan are traditionally very weak months from BOH. There is zero inbound potential in these months. That, coupled with the incredibly weak yields we are likely to manage means the routes are less viable than the minimum baseline we target for ourselves. Every £1 increase in ultimate cost of travel from BOH has a direct impact on demand whether it is passed on or absorbed. This £11 tax together with the general sluggish economy and falling prosperity in the south means the aircraft are better deployed elsewhere i.e outside of the UK. These routes would become viable again if we see stronger economic recovery and a reduction in APD.
