Fanatic 1 - on the contrary i am not an advocat of SNN. The point I am making is one which nobody can deny. Since last year's change in senior managment at ORK 4 carriers have left Cork Airport, the first longhaul charter service has again been cancelled and traffic looks set to be at a loss for 07. This all coupled with the move into a new terminal? I have followed the progress of ORK for many years and it is with great disappointment that I see what is happening now. When I ask what is the brief of the new Marketing team I am merely questioning the apparent shift away from route development. I am fully aware how one measures traffic through airports but if you look at predicted traffic movements for 2007 one has to assume a major drop in traffic for next year.
Easyjet - a loss of 3 flights a day
Ryanair - down to 1 flight a day to LGW, 4 flights a week to LPL, 3 flights a day to STN and 3/4 flights a day to DUB.
Czech - a loss of 6 flights a week
BMI Regional - a loss of 4 flights a week
Jet2 - down to 2 flights a week
Loganair - a loss of 5 services a week
The facts cannot be denied.
