Think FR initially arrived in BFS with Gatwick remedy slots from the IAG takeover of Aer Lingus?
But having chopped and changed a bit, looks like their heart isn’t in it.
Good opportunity for EZY and Jet2 to strengthen - perhaps Wizz too?

A lot of the growth at BFS from U2 and LS has been spurred by FR being there. Be interesting to see if they do pick up anything or of they retract back to profit maximisation.
Interesting talking to a source of mine, a lot of the issues with FR relate to them being unable to fill a/c without heavy discounting. Seems EZY have a more solid and loyal customer base than FR reckoned on, especially in the case of domestic.

The olympics resulted in a dip in tourism to London.

Having the story in the local rag is one thing, having it on the front page of one of the most visited websites in the UK is another: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-49628875

4500 surveys out of membership of 1.6 million.
No independent verification is provided that the people concerned have actually visited ANY airport yet somehow yet again everybody should believe Which?
It's job is increasing subscriptions and surveys like this help.
