No idea as yet, but it will be painted into their livery. Someone mentioned elsewhere that it could be coming from People's Viennaline.
Interesting that SOU, BRS and MAN have all promoted the route on social media, but yet again no publicity from SEN.

Flybe 17/18
Does anybody know when flights are being released for end of 17 going into 18 ? Seems to be very last minute now compared to other operators and must put them at a disadvantage. Thanks

No point in doing DUB or MAN half-heartedly I guess. Offer a serious service or not at all. Lot of eggs going in those two baskets.
Stobart are going to need more aircraft next summer or slash their existing routes.

These would seem to be on the E195 rather than ATRs given the block times. The surprise for me is that DUB originates in SEN - I thought the route really picked up before when it switched to starting in DUB. The early departure from SEN and later departure from DUB also make connections less attractive.
MAN the jury is out - the early departure clearly says they are after a local catchment primarily heading north for business. There is certainly a market for that, my reservation is whether it comes anywhere close to filling a 100 seater.
I also hope these aircraft are in addition to the two existing ones, rather than replacing the European city routes that have much more potential.

Flybe say that an ATR72-500 will operate SEN-MAN and the flight time looks to confirm that. I assume that through bookings on all of Flybe's code share partners will be available via MAN, although this will have to be heavily marketed to gain the maximum benefit.
I agree that DUB-SEN-DUB would be likely to offer more commercial benefits and again I assume that in any event through bookings to US destinations will be available. These proved popular when previously operated under the Aer Lingus Regional brand.

10:00 does seem a rather unfortunately late arrival into SEN from DUB. Had Stobart wanted to, there is no real reason they couldn't have started the day off in Dublin and operated something like DUB-SEN-DUB-SEN-RNS/XXX-SEN-DUB-SEN-DUB.
The 0935 arrival from MAN doesn't seem too bad. To get to southend central for 10:35 you'd need to leave Manchester on an 0530 service. How much traffic there actually is on this route is another matter.
What did the ATRs operate last winter from SEN?

Round 3 on DUB and they have got one thing right operating with a jet but not sure it will last 12-18 months.
