I know Jet2 intended to fly from BOH several years back but it never materialised,
They did fly from BOH - to Belfast but pulled the route.
The Echo reporters will know all about the general lack of progress at the airport going back to the days of Dan Air in the 1970s when it was a thriving "local" providing many flights to the Channel Islands and the Dan Air Link City service that connected the airport with the rest of the UK.
That "thriving" local airport of the 1970s handled just over 73,000 passengers in 1979 (the best year of the 70s). Even last year BOH handled 613,755 pax.
