Brighton City Airways

New start up claims it is just awaiting clearance from BSH to start a new route to Paris Pontoise (POX). Previously used by the likes of Debonair, POX (not the best IATA code I admit) might not have the surface connections of ORY or CDG, but it sure beats BVA.

Claim is a faster journey than Eurostar, and makes big deal about lack of LGW route. This has been discussed on the LGW forum.

Fares from £59, doesn't say whether o/w or return, I would assume just o/w. Implication is small turboprop, no details on type or start date.

Hopefully more than just another paper airline, but still lots of reasons why theye face a tough challenge with such a large rival just up the road / rails.
