The booking system shows Birmingham to Galway down to Monday, Thursday and Friday and Edinburgh losing Tuesday and Wednesday also. Rumour was they were running high passenger numbers so it would seem to make sense to grow these routes rather than cut back if they were making money on them (or were they?).
Did they not lease Dutch aircraft to cover this sort of situation before or have they become too penny wise to realise they are not doing their reputation any favours by destroying schedules like this? Surely it would make more sense to keep them going by planning a lease-in and building loyal passengers rather than dropping services because they haven't planned their maintenance cover in a customer focused way. Now sit back and watch the fares go up.
