As a small practical example. This Fridays service at 18.45 has three people who have allocated their seats. No others. So looks like a near empty flight, which without question looks like a financial loss sector.
They must have quite a lot of EU261 claims in since starting as well.
Indeed. Trains are much smoother and quicker now and airports are much slower and restrictive. And a couple of late or cancelled flights will kill the demand from the few people who chose to use it. Unless they get a EU261 claim each time then it could turn out to be quite profitable 😂
But looking at yesterday’s ops a good chunk would appear eligible for compensation probably wiping out the days profits if there were any at all.
