RE: Revamp at BA spreads to regional operations
CitiExpress has been a total disaster ever since it came about. The workers have been messed with and the morale and job satisfaction is now very low. The mismanagement of the company has taken former profitable companies of BRAL, Brymon, Manx and Cityflyer Express and turned them into a giant, which is now losing money.
The Cardiff base is slowly disappearing and so is Newcastle and as EGNM said, Leeds/Bradford because BA can’t handle them. For places like Plymouth, Newquay, Jersey and Guernsey, I dread to think what is going to happen. However, if BA start giving away routes, no doubt airlines who have the regional market at mind like Eastern will start jumping on the ex-aircraft and routes and no doubt new franchise carriers will emerge, which is very good news.
In the mean time, I still fear for the GCI route. BA is loosing the ATRs and the RJ100s are being relocated. The only other option is bringing the 737 like Jersey has, although I doubt this option will be likely. The same can probably be said for the IOM with BA.
