Angers-London flights : a comforting start

About a little month after it has opened, the activity of the new line between Angers and London city is comforting. Each flight linking the two town is half full. It means that about forty persons would travel in both directions between Angers and London. About 700 persons went to or came from London. An element brings a little bit more confidence for the aerial link : the customers travel more for business than tourism and yet the tourism finishes at the end of the summer; while the business could go on...
 
According to the Angers Loire Aéroport, "the British love Anjou : some of them have second home here and businessmen do not loose time because the plane lands at the core of London". But, the Angers Loire Airport's manager adds that the most difficult is not to open a line but to keep it opened. At the end of the season Bristish Airways will examine is the link is worth to continue.

The current affairs seems to plead for the continuation. Recently the most famous company of Angers, Cointreau (now Remi Cointreau), made the acquisition of the Bruichladdich Distillery Company Ltd, located in Scotland. And of course, Angers city wants the British crown jewels back. Here are issues which hel the flight to last. Moreover, if the jewels come back to Angers, a daily Airbus A 380 will not be sufficient to lead the British people see them in the city of the Plantagenet!
