T3 are a great airline, its just a pity the likes of FlyBe always try and trample on their routes before changing the timetable several times bc of loss making, then bger off to the next route.
WOW use BAs old aircraft as well. What always suprises me is that FlyBe and WOW pretty much fly BAs old routes and profitably, so what does that say about how BA used to run these routes?
As for Sunair, they originally operated using leased BA aircraft - ATPs, so I suspect that is when the franchise began.
Used to fly Air Liberte MAN-LGW-TLS about 10years ago. I swear that the BA lounge at LGW was tiny back then...
