:D
TBH, give me direct flights to TLN and I'd be a happy bunny. Never mind the fast track. :)

There used to be some with Cityjet for a short while right? I knew a couple of people with whom those were quite popular! I think that nowadays there is still a seasonal Flybe from Southampton but nothing else between TLN and the UK. I wouldn't be surprised if someone stepped in there but that would likely be seasonal and restrictive.

Correct. Seasonal and 2 or 3 times a week. Did not last long, though. It was at the time when they were trying new routes left right and centre for a season or two without any coherent strategy and then abandoning them to try something else. Looking back further past, Ryanair operated a STN-TLN at some point (also seasonal). Not sure if the market is big enough, to be honest, especially with the high frequencies to NCE and, or course, MRS (albeit at a much lower frequency) is fairly close. The fact that AF has also introduced two daily rotations from CDG in the last couple of years has, I suspect, dented a little further the room for direct services.

GT operated BA flights in BA colours LGW-TLN in 2003.
