MAN sees smaller cuts as does LGW. LPL and EDI see more flights to/from FRA albeit only very small increases
BHX Frankfurt next winter based on the Aeroroutes report in an increase of 20% compared to winter 22/23 and wipes out the loss on Munich which is 20% down on last winter

Don't get me wrong this isn not great as below pre-COVID levels but looking at Munich it is the night-stop that has gone and only once daily Tuesday - Thursday in January and the weekend. LH2508 is mainly shown as an A20N which capacity wise matches a double daily CR9 of a significant increase on the 195 and A319.
Frankfurt equates to 3 daily but Monday Wednesday Friday Sunday still showing 4 with Cityline operating one service a day at times but 2 daily in low season January to February half term which is very harsh.
All in all it does look like a direct match movements wise to last winter with possibly slightly more A320's on Munich.
Manchester Frankfurt shows 5 per day down to 4 per day and I am sure large parts of last winter Manchester was only seeing 4 per day so again probably not a loss year on year. Their Munich averages out at around 2.8 flights a day so again similar to last year.
