If you look at their first flight each day, they have four starting from Galway, three in Cork, one in Luton, two on the Isle Of Man (one of which is operating for euromanx), and one each in Kerry, Knock and Donegal - that makes 13, so number 14 must be a spare.
Think the 14th aircraft is AerArann flying on behalf of Thomson Fly. Defo seen in Jersey regular. Don't know what exact routes it does
