Funny how Aer Aranns' press release when they pulled the plug on Belfast City - Dublin was almost exactly the same after only operating the route for 8 weeks! The main reason for poor load factors on this service was down to absurd timings and a poor fare structure.

The fact that almost certainly the a/c were required for the increased Dublin - Cork services following the Aer Lingus withdrawal would also have been a factor!

It would be nice if airlines would at least be honest when citing reasons for withdrawing services!
