I did Berlin in June last year thanks to the direct flight, I intend to go back because I loved it! There was also a surprising amount of VFR traffic on that flight, as I'm sure there are on Ryanair's Polish routes. Hopefully that's enough to keep them afloat
That's fair enough, I just wondered if these destinations got quickly "tired out".

I will be flying to Pisa in a few months so it will be interesting to see the pax numbers.
From there it is a train to Florence. I just can't understand when they originally built Florence city they didn't build an airport closer.....
