Be a real shame if these unique flights end. I've used MAN/BLL a few times and it's never been less than 75% full. I've been a little out ot my way to use the route even when going to other areas of Denmark/Sweden or elsewhere.
It's a real shame the UK/Esjberg ferry never got going again to give access to that part of the world.
My favourite trip was when we were off to Lalandia and Legoland/Legohouse for a week, due to reward seat availability the only option was via LHR. The MAN/LHR was so late we'd have missed the LHR/BLL so I managed to get us all on the direct flight instead.
