Looks like we might be seeing the return of a service to Sibiu in Romania, which Blue Air use to fly...
Sibiu airport have put out a tender to airlines to operate the service and offer financial aid on the route for a five year period...
Interestingly Sibiu Airport are clearly stating they want the route to operate to "London (Luton)", and not just a London airport. If the incentive/financial aid is good enough, wouldn't surprise me if Wizzair picks up the route or Blue Air looks to it being re-introduced. It would however be nice to see another airline flying to the airport.
The airport is seeking a connection to Luton with a minimum of two weekly flights and closing date for applications is the 3rd July is anyone is interested in starting it up?! They are also seeking connections to other European cities, but Luton seems to be top of the list, with the tenders closing before the other routes.
It seems Luton has a small little fan base building up around Europe, especially with passengers in Waterford wanting a specific service to Luton and not just London. In the same way Sibiu wants a similar service!
