always love it how everyone seems so shocked that Newquay has a scheduled air service from London!!!
after all its so simple to get to Cornwall from London and other parts of the Country isnt it!
Yes Cornwall/Newquay has got a service from Newquay, once a day with BA, 4 per day with WOW. However its nothing new, the loads are good enough to warrent it so why not!
anyway, rant over! im not trying to pick a fight, as a matter of fact i agree with
flyclub BA should serve Cardiff the same as they already do at EDI/GLA/MAN/NQY etc etc etc!
would it really be all that difficult to operate and sell the services, as a guess unlike NQY the majority of the passangers would be made up of business/connecting customers. considering Wales has a very good tourist market i doubt it would be difficult to sell the seats as connections for European / American customers.
After all if they can fly a plane in for refurb/maintenance etc why not carry passengers and make the flight pay its way!
just my thoughts anyway
