Cork did not force Belfast down Jet 2's throat.
What about easy on BRS-ORK? Sure, it is a very huge capacity increase on the ATR42/72 but if you start selling seats at Euro/£9.99 or less who knows where you might end going? The 6G flights from/to CWL could then be vulnerable too with their ATR services? If at the same time easy were to do a W rotation starting with BRS to Cork, well then, anywhere could be on the horizon with easy out of Cork? How about a x6/7 from Bristol and, say, then a x2/7 to Berlin/Madrid/Venice?
Am I being a little imaginative or am I just deluding myself in my dotage!?
