Just been checking the Ryanair UK - Dublin timetables and Ryanair appear to be only operating 6x weekly to Dublin once a day, with no Saturday flight.
Ryanair timteable now published for summer 06.
DUB-BRS remains at 3 daily rotations with 2 on Sats and 2 on Suns.
Given that the 738 will be on the route permanently this represents around an extra 350 FR seats each weekday compared to when the 732 mainly operated the route - a lot of seats to try to fill.
CAA pax stats for FR's other BRS route are published for the first time. The SNN-BRS route carried 6525 pax in November, averaging 109 per flight. Not a huge load factor when one considers the equipment is the 738 but, given this is a brand new route that commenced at the beginning of winter with an early evening scheduling, it might be taken as a promising start.
More interested in re-taking our position as the UK's 8th busiest
a b,
Still 10th at present - 5,150,844 on CAA's rolling 12 months at end of November compared to NCL's 5,171,512, although BRS did have 13,000 more pax in November than Wor Jackie's airport.
Happy Christmas to you and to everyone else associated with PPRuNe.
