Other European Frequent Flyer Programs - BABOO - New Destinations
Concerto

A number of new destinations are available at www.flybaboo.com, including London City. Does anyone know how reliable this LCY service is going to be? It is already for sale on their site, at reduced prices. I have a fear they may unexpectedly withdraw it, as they did Kiev (and as did CityJet on the GVA to LCY route). This is because I will have a connection from BABOO onto CityJet at LCY.
Do you plan to book on one ticket (in which case it would be Baboo's responsibility to protect you onto another flight) or on two separate tickets?
Obviously, nobody knows yet how resilient the Baboo operation into LCY will be. They probably believe in it to be sustainable... but they thought that about Kiev, too.

Actually, I made another arrangement (a cheap easyJet deal to AMS, then a special offer 5,000 mile ticket on KLM to EDI). I remember the Kiev thing. I hope the Baboo operation works out, they have some pretty good One Way prices in and out of LCY (which Swiss certainly doesn't have). Similarly, CityJet now seem to have good prices on One Way domestic flights in the UK.
