The website does look excellent. Great work.

Sad to see the LGW service may be gone. I have felt that it really needed to be a twice daily service, allowing for day returns. I know the early morning service into/out of LGW was not hugely popular, but on a regional ATR it might work? Potentially operating an early morning AT7 flight each morning and an evening A320 flight might work, but obviously EI feel the aircraft would be better used elsewhere. I imagine regional's growth will be slowed unless RE take on some extra aircraft soon.

At the airport I noticed that Subway has closed down. The loss of Starbucks (replacement with CCR) is also a blow, IMHO. Clearly it is a boon for HMS Host, who are charging Starbucks prices, but won't have the huge licensing fees. Is there a plan for the Subway unit?
