Hi,
I take it your referring to easy pulling out of Ireland? Does anyone know the reasons?
If true, yields and passenger numbers may well have something to do with it!
Yesterday in their full year results presentation, Ryanair very helpfully 'outed' EasyJet's passenger numbers and load factors on their Irish routes for March 2006:
- EasyJet LGW - ORK: 14,300 Pax, 55% flown load factor
- EasyJet LGW - SNN: 4,500 Pax, 52% flown load factor
- EasyJet LGW - NOK: 5,400 Pax, 55% flown load factor
The figures above are taken from the presentation. I have not attempted to verify them. If the numbers have been anywhere near that bad for other months, it's difficult to see how the routes could be sustained.
