So tonight I had to book flights to Düsseldorf for Wednesday 17th of September/day return
Checked flights with Eithad Regional prices came to £117.48 return.
Checked flights with Germanwings/Eurowings came to £76 return with the extras included, ie seat selection.
Needless to say my business went to Germanwings, but just thought id check another date 15th october and the prices for each were the same.
So would seem Germanwings are offering the better deal to try and remove Eithad regional.
thought id post for those interested
