Not sure it necessarily means that. The slot report doesn't list BRI or PIS as cancelled destinations for the upcoming winter season (see list below) and there's no entry for those destinations in the CAA data from November '22 to February '23 (inclusive), meaning that those two routes didn't operate in those months.

but only 4 aircraft required in Tuesday, 5 on Wednesday and 6 on Thursday.
Pretty sure they've had a similar pattern of low utilisation Tuesday to Thursday in previous years, especially in January and February.

There was no mention in the slot report of Tirana, but it hasn't stopped them launching it with an EDI-based aircraft on Tuesdays and Saturdays for this coming winter. Presumably the 'ops department' will manage just fine to run things as they see fit.
