I think the best that could happen now is to encourage existing operators to continue to operate through the 3 winter months
Having done an excellent job bringing 6 new routes this year its now time to secure winter schedules . Easy Jet would be a good example to try Grenoble and Innsbruck again as no one to compete with this time and the demand is there according to local travel agents who have booked a huge amount of passengers from the area to Bristol / Southampton and Gatwick for both ski and sun routes for those 3 missing months
Inghams Ski was a huge loss and one i still dont understand , and nothing from them this winter . With the loss of Las Palmas with Thomson is a mystery as well for this winter ?
Only 2 cruise charters to Barbados again next winter given they have been full up and considering there were more than 10 a few years ago the airport needs to look away from Bath Travel more and go towards P and O / Cunard direct
