It seems that the extra airframes are being robbed from other bases (ie EDI and LGW), bit sad for the crews that now have to shift base or type. Who in their right mind would want a Q400 type rating? Surely the most worthless type rating in the world (except for maybe Concorde...)
Feel sorry for the crews that offered to go to SOU, only to get shafted with an overnight IBZ. I wonder if the crew will get a HOTAC for the split... nah, of course not.

The cost of running the lesser Dash 8's is considerably more (as they carry so many less pax with only a slightly lower cost per hour).

If the cost is clearly stated as "plus tax", what exactly is hidden? I think you will find that all the relevant charges are clearly laid out on the website.
BTW how much is the next cheapest ticket to GCI? Thought so.
