Talking Bmibaby - Sustainable with two aircraft ?

Well i've been having a look at <a href="http://www.bmibaby.com/bmibaby/" target="_blank">http://www.bmibaby.com/bmibaby/</a> and the one thing that hits me is how sustainable is the timetable with just two aircraft ? One plane going tec would surely have pretty big implications for the rest of the timetable -- or would Mum or Dad be on hand with a spare 737 if something went wrong ? - after all what are parents for ?

Also given the "tourist" nature of the destinations bmibaby are flying to , I was surprised to see there is pretty much 0% utilisation between 0000 and 0700 - would have thought a few "red-eye" flights would have been operated. Charter work maybe ???
