I'm not disagreeing with any sentiment here, the sheer volume of lost operators is alarming. Seems to me only about 50% of new routes/airlines stick.

El Al's a good example. Manchester is one of the largest Jewish cities in the world. After London and Paris it may well be Europe's third biggest.

Route retention unit is a great idea, and I just wonder how MAG deal with this. Not very effectively it would seem.

I noticed that they're currently advertising for an 'airline network planner', on 35k with company car. I think I might apply
