Lydd we can add to the list of airports that tried and failed. I remember it being marketed as London Ashford airport which was seen as silly because it only had flights to Le Touquet in France that is closer to Lydd Airport than London is.
For 2 months in 2013 there were flights from Brighton to Paris but they had to stop because of customs problems. Other than that SkySouth which pulled out in 2009 and Blue islands pulled out in 2008.
When did Brighton (Shoreham) last have scheduled passenger services. I can recall someone trying to set up a service to Paris in about 2013 but I don't think it ever actually launched. It was still a grass landing strip until 1981.
