BRS will already see a Dubrovnik route for 2015 as part of the expanded cruise programme to include more regional airports, so whether TOM increase the base size for this it is not yet known although they did look to increase the number of based aircraft last year.

Personally, i believe that the LH market is a pretty even battle between CWL and BRS as the MON on behalf of Cosmos SFB charters were very popular two summers ago, with a short lead in time with a less known operator. CWL certainly can get loads on these sorts of routes, which has lead to further winter cruise flights with P+O, Thomson Holidays and recently Sandals. So it would be of no surprise to me to see CWL harbouring the LH ops for TOM in Summer 2015, although BRS is still a very strong competitor as of course the TOM flights operated quite recently.

TOM 2015 goes on sale this thursday (24th April).
