Dear MarkD,
I agree with you regarding the "open-skies". I can imagine that it could boost a bit the flow of the greek travellers. From the other side, Ireland apart the open skies has adapted an excellent tax policies which has attracted a lot of global businesses such as Dell, Google...etc....Obviously this thing has contributed a lot to the economy of Ireland and the flow of the business travellers.
In any case, I can say that although i am a bit astonished that FR wants to take over the air of Morocco, I find it a correct strategy. And from Hann can not be considered as a short lenght route. (maybe the new 738s will be used for those routes?)
Kind Regards
Tms
