Compared with LEQ or IOS?
LEQ, lands end has Newquay which has BA service and must be less than a 2hr drive. No idea where IOS is.

You're a bit out of date there.

I guess IOS is in Cupertino?

Are you sure? Newquay airport live departures shows BA 6173 to Gatwick today at 11:05 . I know it will be a codeshare but it does have a BA flight number.

IOS clearly refers to ISC !!!!!

And yes BA do codeshare on the flybe services via LGW.

Slightly OT but the flybe Manchester route now has AY and EY codeshares.

And they use Irish butter. Just wow!!

If we count code shares (do you earn tp on them?), then we still have the needles on the Isle of Wight, and Cromer in Norfolk

I looked at the twice daily quasi-TATL from SEN to the USA via DUB using Air Stobart for the s/h. A regular train service from London Liverpool Street (or Southend-on-Sea or points between) direct to the airport is attractive. However, there has been local criticism of poor transport links for late arrivals, i.e. none other than taxi.

This is where the onsite parking would come into play, I suppose.

One new service not mentioned above is SEN-CAX. Stobart own both airports so can control costs and with a £3.95 English breakfast, this opens up an alternative to London Airways.

If the flight is operated with a BA code, and you book the flight under the BA code, you get tier points, regardless of who operates the flight.

Booking any Aer Lingus (or Aer Lingus Regional) flight under its EI code, however, will never earn Tier Points.
