Hi Expressflight,

I never actually said that ' SEN DUB does not work', rather I said 'if SEN DUB does not work', which is a very different statement.

I cannot comment on whether SEN DUB was profitable as I don't have access to that information. However, I concur thst the route had not reached it full potential yet, as illustrated by consistently growing numbers until the frequency was cut.

It is a most bizarre relationship that exists between Flybe and Stobart Air. They go into what effectively is a partner relationship which sees Stobart launching flights in Flybe brand and then Flybe go into one of Stobart Air's key Dublin routes from Cardiff. My reading of this is either 1. The relationship is not good or 2. There is a bigger picture referring Stobart Air's future with Flybe in the picture...?

Any views on this?
