Don't forget the appalling looking figures for BCN and FAO were on split load flights with PIK, set up with rather short notice. Next year I notice that PIK will have a based AEU aircraft operating the Seguro flights, leaving MSE able to have an entire aircraft dedicated to them. They should drop the BCN though - too much competition and 86 pax is truly woeful.
As I stated before a slow steady increase seems to be the way to go, forget all your Esperia massive expansion and your FR dreams (if I were an airport operator I would try and avoid them until another carrier was set up anyway) and concentrate on a small steady charter programme for Summer 2007. After all that is how PIK restarted in the 1990s.
