When REU was announced I thought it looked to have appeal and it is just my researches since seats went on sale that led me to believe this wasn't turning out to be the case.

Ryanair market REU as 'Barcelona Reus' while Jet2 call it 'Reus (Barcelona South)' and I wonder if that identifies it better for potential travellers. Maybe a lot of people just don't recognise 'Reus' as a destination. It's possible perhaps that it was a nod towards easyJet's BCN route that caused SEN to just omit the Barcelona reference in their marketing.
