TCX to EMA?

kasuga

For the life of me I cannot see why TCX would pull out of BHX to EMA, or for that matter why TCX would abandon EMA for BHX.

Thomas Cook are a tour operator that simply couldn't afford to dump either airport and leave the market to the other big player - TUI (in the guise of Thomson). Tour operators these days market flying with their own in-house airline as a plus point for booking with them, so even if TCX were to remove their base at BHX they would maintain a very large presence at the airport, operating as "W" patters, perhaps from EMA - still, myself, I think the clue is in the word "rumour" on this one.
