This was the battle on IOM, multiple daily connections vs. at best once daily volume on the same route. You guys may end up with very little net new routes and losing out on existing flexibility on timings, all to save some money. Swings and roundabouts as this schedule could kill the margins of both competitors stone dead and the assets will be flown elsewhere
potentially leaving days with no service at all.
