I wonder if it may be to scoop up any passengers going up to Heathrow? The flight is operated by Easyjet Switzerland so whether it actually leads anything else only time will tell as like you say bigger airports don't have much of an EZY service but the South Coast area does have a decent sized population and isn't exactly poor either.It will be a bit odd when busier airports such as BHX and LBA which have a limited non-based easyJet service (had in the case of LBA) have not seen much expansion. Nearby BOH has had an easyJet winter Geneva route for a number of years so to start one 'just down the road' at SOU is also slightly eyebrow-raising.
It might but there is a huge easyJet base at Gatwick. You'd have thought that with its long association with BOH easyJet would have done something there if they wanted to serve the extremely large Bournemouth-Poole/Southampton/Portsmouth conurbation. BOH's runway is more suitable too if easyJet was seriously thinking of significantly increasing their offering for that area.I wonder if it may be to scoop up any passengers going up to Heathrow?

I've never been to Bounemouth Airport but I have been to Southampton and know their departure lounge is not the biggest it's not a great place be delayed and soon runs short of space.It will be a bit odd when busier airports such as BHX and LBA which have a limited non-based easyJet service (had in the case of LBA) have not seen much expansion.

Maybe so it will be a bit of a crush otherwise.If this is true and Easyjet do launch flights then i wonder if the terminal will receive some expansion during the winter as well.
I think one too watch is if Easyjet switches some of the BHX away based routes too BHX based aircraft which could then free up aircraft for Southampton.With talk of EZY expanding at SOU, we may see a carbon copy of the BHX operation with a handful of away based routes to start with and to test appetite, followed by a base of say x 3 A320 in a couple of years time. With the runway extension almost complete and demand from the large Solent conurbation, it could become very successful!
