BE could reduce some of the BHD-MAN flights during winter as they have 6-7 flights a day, excluding weekends which seems a tad much during some of the winter months, thats just my guess anyway but i doubt they will pull the flights completely, but as always it doesnt matter on the price BE, EZY and WW will offer, its how much of a profit they will make.

BE could do better than WW at BHD, as BE have smaller aircraft more suitable for winter traffic and a lower fuel burn. EZY at BFS should do well, having 2 flights a day is ideal, obviously it would be smart to add additional during the Christmas travel rush.

no point selling tickets dirt cheap, you need to make a profit, after all EZY tried BHD-LTN, hoping for better performance, yet they stated they didnt see any tangible benefits.. will WW have the same?
