Blue Islands & Flybe

From December Blue Islands will upgrade SOU-GCI to an ATR 72 with 66 seats, they are also adding a Saturday evening flight meaning the route will operate 19x weekly. They seem to be pushing the idea of using SOU as a way of getting to London when combined with the train. I'm quite surprised to see GCI route upgraded, I would've thought JER was the more popular of the two routes.

Also there are a couple of increases from the largest resident for next summer.

PMI goes from 6x per week to daily in the peak season.
AGP is now 5x weekly outside the peak months, it was 4 this year.
NCE increases to 5x weekly in the peak season, compared to 4 this year.
BCN increases from 2 to 3 weekly for the whole season.
