Of the 'smaller' Flybe airports such as EXT, SOU and CWL I'm surprised that CWL's deal with Fybe, reportedly worth several million pounds, has not unsulated it aganst any Flybe reductions until a general cutback takes place (if it does). If, still a big if because none of us knows what's going to happen, CWL does see some reductions before the likes of EXT and SOU one has to wonder about the value of the CWL agreement with Flybe. It's a ten-year deal and is not even half way through its duration yet.It's weird that CWL has seen such a reduction and other airports are not, maybe they were in plan before the sale but it seems unlikely as they all had great loads. The only problem is their isn't another airline to fill the routes with the correct size planes which Flybe had. The German routes could be picked up by BMI but with BRS so close it makes it unlikely.
I think we have to wait and see what transpires and not read too much into what appears to be the situation at CWL.
