Just a small point but it wasnt that there no flights its just they were all full for the next ten days. Not good for the stuck punters but FR must be doing something right if every flight is packed. People vote with their feet and their pocket.
I don't believe that for a minute. FR flights are not usually "sold out". They're "full", as in "the few remaining seats will now sell for EUR 299.00 + tax".
These "Aunt Siobhan has died and I MUST attend the funeral tomorrow"-fares is where most of the profit is for FR. So why give these valuable seats to those who have already paid? Not like MOL at all.
