a p2p network requires multiple bases unless that you will always be trapped in a hub operation
LH does P2P ex FRA, DUS, MUC,ZRH,VIE, BRU
without basing AC and crew you cannot start p2p
and even that requires feeding into the long haul operation
EK does everything without feeders still they don’t operat direct Perth for e.g
P2P is nearly impossible outside of domestic areas a fact which many airlines realized once started going long range
norwegian, Air Berlin , ltu just to be named
mix flying long rang and short haul requires hub operation unless you have a strong enough business to effort having 3 airplanes there and 2 here - not in such cost intense times where multi BN $ business runs chewing gum margins per seat
