ARN, BUDA, WAW, FCO - agreed all should be operating now
FR - Can see both sides of the argument in terms of charges but yes
"heads in the sand" did sum up the general attitude to LCC's but
boy have they had a big wake-up call
November Pax - Shock horror, should actually be up between 3-7%
depending on weather (notams show runway closures)
Baby - Like you I now fear the worse unless they send the 9th aircraft
here. With BACON gone I can see at least 2 CDG's
possibly 4 EDI's and 3 GlA's. This will not leave many new routes
BA/BE - The worrying aspect is that last summer the combined based
units were 13 with another 8 early morning arrivals. If BE
do as they claim and dump the BA aircraft quickly, how many
based units will there be? I can also see the 5 early BA morning
inbounds just going (route duplication and lack of craft).
How flybe are going to shuffle the back and speed up deliveries
is going to interesting to watch.
NEMA - Not totally brilliant at the moment, I could have bought ten
tickets for week next for £166 for virtually any European route and some of tomorrows flights are £40 return. Even with FR's low cost
base, these surely are mega empty. I know people travelling
soon (tomorrow and next week ready with their reports)
