Don't think we will be seeing this lot at Bournemouth

PowdAir replied to my message :

Hello Mark , sorry but Bournemouth will not feature in our planning as we will be flying out of Southampton and the infrastructure for Bournemouth is terrible ...
No free bus direct from train station to airport , overpriced car parking and generally a very poor terminal service

I guess Easy Jet see it a bit differently !
I've not been on for a while and was just checking up on the usual SOU v BOH arguments.
I find that PowdAir's response quite unprofessional unless you are paraphrasing. Granted the bus routes are poor, but I find it hard to believe that the car parking is overpriced compared to SOU. I also find it hard to believe that the terminal service is very poor.

My evidence to dispute PowdAir is to quickly compare a random fortnight in April, cheapest BOH price is £66 whereas SOU was £99.

Their loss.
