Forgetting that AF schedule will take some of the traffic from EI AMS schedule. Its unfortunate passengers could well end up suffering CDG over AMS as a hub long term if for example EI exited AMS. KL may not be in a position to expand to x2 daily.
The economics of 3 aircraft in winter may not stack up. 1 for LHR, 1 for x10-12 AMS and x7 CDG and 1 for C Islands, LIS, AGP with plenty of gaps.
So will they consolidate to x2?
Im impressed Cork has managed to get both AF/KLM. Those in Co. Clare have little chance of securing a mainland hub.
