I hope Aer Arann will reinstate the daily service for the summer. I never really new why they cut it back. I used to live and work in Ireland and have spoken to them about their UK services at great length. It seems they saw greater potential on Breton and French routes from Waterford and Galway. They are a Galway Airline (their MD is from there) so may be they feel there services are always under threat in Cork from budget airlines. At least with GWY (despite being only 90 KM from SNN) they know because of the runway length they have a loyal captive audience. I know that their GWY-WAT-LRT has done tremendously well for them with loads of over 90%. It will be interesting to see what happens. Maybe WOW would consider BRS-EXT-ORK?
