I think this route will live or die by Airbus and Airbus related travel - so it could be either a very good move, or a very bad one

bmi regional, the UK’s most punctual airline, today announced the launch of a brand new route from Bremen, Germany to Toulouse, France. This is the first route to be announced on mainland Europe, continuing the airline’s European network expansion.
Cathal O’Connell, chief executive, bmi regional said: “The launch of this route from Bremen to Toulouse, our first service on the continent, is an indication of our ambition and a significant investment to position the airline for growth outside of the UK. This new route is the prefect addition to the seven new routes we have rolled out since bmi regional established itself as an independent airline in 2012 (Bristol to Aberdeen, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Manchester to Antwerp, Birmingham to Gothenburg, Lyon and Toulouse). bmi regional’s choice of destinations is based on business and leisure customer demand. Toulouse is a significant base for Airbus, as is Bremen. We are proud to be part of the infrastructure linking these two great European cities”.
Jürgen Bula, CEO, Bremen Airport said: “With the british carrier bmi regional, together we have found the very best solution for the Bremen-Toulouse route: an excellent quality product with an all Embraer jet fleet”.
Non-stop flights from Bremen to Toulouse commence 4th March 2013 with five flights per week.
