Let's have some fun speculation around that new scheduled airline.
BE has to be a strong contender, looking to take on BD on the German routes. I wouldn't be terribly pleased about that, as it would put the LH interline/codeshare at risk in favour of point to point traffic.
Or maybe BE will establish a 3x daily to their hub at EXT
Other, more helpful, possibilities:
LX to ZRH
SK to CPH
IB to MAD
OS to VIE
TK to IST
That list gets pretty unlikely, pretty quickly. Completely off my even wildest suggestions would be AF, AZ, TP, LO. BA doesn't get a mention because whilst Bristol is *British*, it can't have a route to LHR or LGW. So BA are out.
Didn't BE say they'd done very well with their temporary/lashed up CWL-LCY route whilst the Severn Tunnel was closed?
Looking forward to another busy year's flying from BRS. Happy New Year.
