Jonathan Hinkles, Loganair’s Managing Director said: “We’re looking forward to beginning a long and successful working relationship with Durham Tees Valley Airport and intend to announce further service developments at DTVA in the coming months.”
Note that "further service developments" is not necessarily the same as "further new service destinations".....
Interesting times ahead.....

Agreed & what has been said must be extremely subjective, given that at this time he has not actually dealt with the opposition.

I thought I had read a while back Loganair ( probably when they split up with Flybe ).
Said they wanted to aggressively push South into Northern English and regional airports.
I read into this they sadly ( sorry DTV guys , because any news is meant to be good news ) .
But to replicate a service that's failing.
And offer a new service apparently needed for business , but one ( isn't it just Sundays to NWI? ).
This reads as political plus as the other poster sadly was right a simple attack on the opposite airline .
Plus the idea of lots of Tartan Tailed aircraft flying into English airports with large English Airlines smacks of a bit of nationalism there !.

Highwide, Skyman and co raise valid points, though Skyman overstates. I'm on the fence, my excitement comes from the first new routes in a few years and my slight nervousness is based on the same reasons others mention...i.e. ultimately there can only be one winner maybe even no winners and one big loser. But we're in a beggars can't be choosers situation and any new business is to be welcomed.
I was thinking more about how it reflects on organisation.

Nice to see lots of new DTV posters on here...more interest..maybe things picking up??
Some busy days on the movements section recently..and that's against a backdrop of ATC/airport closures/AFS restrictions..!! Just think what could be achieved with a full service???

Don't want to miss the match! (for the youngsters, weekend football games used to be played exclusively at 3 o'clock on a Saturday afternoon...)
Maybe the Mayor's paying?

Robert..but does that restrict the movements and planning of customers? Plus the message it sends out that..the airport is not quite functional 100% ? Just a thought..

I think any operator worth their salt would approach the airport regardless and ask the question "can you increase the fire category for us" and the response would be "yes given the amount of business you'll be bringing in" or "no the income doesn't outweigh the additional cost", the atc closures are only short term whilst they train someone up
