I'm actually surprised that it's taken this long for a second German route

STR is a good addition to NQY

I'm equally surprised that flybe hasn't added German routes ex NQY

Both showing in the booking engine as an A319. Good to see Newquay picking up additional capacity to Germany. Flights bookable into October. Is this an extension of the current season?

I wonder when and who will step up with FRA

Whoever does will of course be in competition with the Harps from Hahn....assuming that route is to return?

In fact, will be interesting to see if RYR keep the faith with NQY next year?

FR is already on sale to HHN, ALC, FAO for S18

August 17 stats make good reading.

Stand out routes:
Manchester - 10,057 +36%
Birmingham - 4,670 +13%
London is fairly similar to last August with 15,000 on gatters plus 3500 for STN

Looking positive for 2018, one new route so far with all current routes returning

The regions around DUS and STR are, from my observation, traditionally the German regions that have the strongest tourist links with the British Isles, whether it is the Channel Islands, Scotland or now Cornwall. The catchment are of Frankfurt for outbound leisure flights really is not that breathtaking, compared to DUS and STR.
