I've got to admit, a daily F100 seems like an awful lot of seats for Dresden, particularly when neither the airline nor the city have particular recognition among the British public. Fairly clearly the airline looks to be targeting the German traveller coming to London but I guess time will tell whether this level of frequency ultimately turns out to be too ambitious, if it actually launches that is...

I've got to say I am somewhat surprised at their route choices as neither Dresden nor Saarbrücken would be very high up my list of German cities to serve. I would have thought Berlin, Frankfurt and Munich at the very least would be more popular. From what I understand, OLT seem to have a reasonable sized presence at Dresden and with the fleet expansion, perhaps there would be the potential to expand further or to serve alternative routes depending on how these work out.
