Main diversion currently seems to be SEN but hey ho that's neither here nor there!
As most cityflyer aircraft night stop down route I would be interested to see if they will a domestic commercial positioning flight down to STN at some point ex EDI etc, same way that Cityflyer operate a commercial LCY-ABZ flight at the start of the weekend and then another ABZ-LCY to get the aircraft back to city.
Perhaps if they did the routes would be commercial ?
on the subject of aircraft, 1 has newly been delivered second hand to Cityflyer an E90, plus at least 2 more to come in the not too distant future, 1 second hand and 1 new build ?
