Volotea
Heard rumours of Volotea evaluating scheduled services from SEN. Would be an excellent airline for SEN to get onboard, especially with the mix of city and leisure destinations that they currently operate. Has anyone got any news or thoughts on this?

65,138 pax in March. Dublin and Belfast figures seem more encouraging at last:
Amsterdam 12,563, Faro 5693, Belfast 9786, Alicante 4608, Barcelona 8168, Malaga 5399, Palma 580, Dublin 5298, Jersey 4450, Geneva 3293, Venice 4239.

GVA was actually even better that your typo said; 3,923 rather than 3,293.
March continued the improvement on DUB which started in February: January 3,330, February 4,948 and March 5,298.

Unfortunately the BFS service is going down to daily so numbers will probably decrease from May.
From info it appears NI pax are using the service but not from the SEN end

Perhaps Thomson/First Choice will add new routes to its 2014 summer schedule which is released on the 25th April? Not sure how to interpret the article, but by the looks of things they should at the very least operate the Palma de Majorca route next year again which is good.

That's good, but would have been nice to see some different destinations. I would guess that this may be operated by Volotea again since they also operate to/from Ibiza.

You probably will see different routes, because I would imagine easyJet will stop flying SEN to IBZ if First Choice do the route - thus allowing easyJet to replace their route with something new.

It will more than likely be a once weekly charter flight to IBZ. I don't see easyJet dropping PMI as a destination this year just because Thomson are offering a weekly charter to tie in with their own package holidays.

I can confirm that Palma de Majorca will continue in 2014 as Thomson Cruises are offering SEN as a departure point for cruises from Palma.
