As all are aware, OLT Express will find life easier at Southend if they can gain some UK originating traffic, rather than relying purely on German originating traffic. Without a strong brand in the UK, I assume that anyone thinking of booking a ticket would Google the company to check they are a plausible outfit.

I really do hope that OLT Express (Germany) do something about their brand name.
If I Google "OLT Express", on the first page of results, every link is to the Polish carrier, with 4 of the links referring to people being stranded, bankruptcy, and the airline being grounded.

Route seems to begin in less than 5 weeks - hope this is enough time to get forward bookings going.

Oh yeah - and an option on the homepage to switch from German to English might be nice.

Don't get me wrong - I really would like to see this route work, but I can just see a bit of an uphill struggle ahead.
