I agree that EZY is a much better catch for SEN that FlyBE, but FlyBE could operate services to France and Germany from SEN which would be quite attractive to the local catchment as well as to Londoners - should also attract the French and Germans to a London terminal. Domestically Glasgow and Edinburgh are still available from SEN - the large RBS presence at Southend should make those routes attractive. I guess FlyBE have other things on their mind, as well as a small bit of unwillingness to admit an earlier mistake in not seeing the potential of SEN?
