I would be very surprised if they kept Glasgow and only that route. I'd say there will be more loaded before too long. I'd be amazed if there wasn't another carrier for a London route at the very...

I think you're either significantly overestimating CODA's catchment area or significantly underestimating IWAK's with that statement. The area of the island for which CODA is the nearest geographical...

You have to take most of what Ryanair say with a pinch of salt but I do think they have a genuine shortage of aircraft again this summer. Hopefully once the next batch of deliveries kick in they will...

The problem at the moment is a combination of a lack of spare aircraft available to Ryanair combined with their switch in focus to major airports. Hopefully the next tranche of 738 deliveries will be...

To be fair, a lot of predictions made before September 2008 bear little relationship to the world we now live in. We've basically lost six years through economic stagnation that has hindered the...

I'd say that as long as the city council are willing to plug the financial black hole there should be no impact on CODA.

Aside from BHX is that the same as this summer? There should be an opportunity here for BE or EI to move onto the BHX route.

It doesn't necessarily have to be an either/or situation with Ryanair though. Knock is just one of many airports that mix Ryanair with regional operators. However, it is only workable if the demand...

Those LFs seem alright for the time of year - other than PIK which is low, but it must be working out profitable for Ryanair over the year as a whole, or else they wouldn't keep running it.

Very snug Saturday schedule. The place will be closed for the day by 9am but it makes sense in terms of costs.

Airport fees are also likely to be lower from Knock as a result of the departure charge levied to passengers there meaning that less passengers can still generate higher yield compared to ldy-man.

If only! :)



You are getting your months a bit mixed up, 1086 was the June figure for 3xweekly. It is 5xweekly for July and August, but too soon for any figures yet.

I could be wrong but is four rows not 24 seats (6 seats per row)? You seem to have accounted for 12. Wouldn't change the figure that much though.
