There already is an incentive - no APD.

Loganair are taking over from Eastern Airways as operator of BACF’s up to 3 x daily IOM-LCY service from 01SEP18. Crew currently based at IOM and employed by Eastern are to be TUPEd to Loganair. Flights will be operated by a S2000 which will be based at IOM. It is unclear if the S2000 operating the route will be painted in full BA livery.
Hopefully Loganair will prove to more reliable operator than Eastern Airways has been in recent months.

As soon as I heard Eastern were stopping the Isle of Man to London route for BA I always thought Loganair would take over because of their previous partnership with them and they also have the right size of aircraft.

Mmm, not sure on their daily reliability, especially stretching resources on new sectors and bases. My last two flights with loganair (Wick) were one and two hours (SYY) delayed on 30min flights.
Cant be any worse! Is this Loganair's first trip to LCY?

Nice to see XJ again after a long time. She, alternating with XK, was based at Leeds Bradford for a few years operating mainly Brussels and Glasgow schedules, neither of which we have now. Are you paying attention, Logan ?

Interesting approx fuel burn comparisons
Saab340 ~400kg/hr
Saab2000 ~ 900kg/hr
ERJ135 - 1100kg/hr
Obviously the fuel flow is only part of the economics with faster quicker flight times, full ownership and no repayments. I think maintenance costs of Saabs are also disproportionate.
BMI have done okay with them so dont think theres a major issue here. Im sure Loganair have 'done the math'
