Since EZY took over the route has seen constant growth, most if not all double digit growth, and that's without having any detrimental effect on LHR. If they left it another year and they were still under 70% loads then maybe I could understand pulling the route but I think they've made the decision too soon. I'm sure 50%+ would just be turning a profit. Although as we know.... Other deployment is more profitable.
Just have to hope Flybe have the same success on the STN route as the last operator... Who were they again? The one with 4 daily 737's...
