I think Flybe had a selection of French destinations from SOU. Still very difficult year ahead for any operator id say.

Eastern are axing their SOU link to Teesside ( and also the link between Teesside and Aberdeen).

Eastern airways have now removed all Southampton-Gibraltar flights with the last currently being 11th October 2021.

So it begs the question..will it be cut?

Seems like Leeds/Bradford isn’t the only route that’s being cut from Southampton as the 2 French routes to Rennes and Nantes are also facing the chop.
