DLs loads were in excess of 75% year round?
Are you sure. Think I would need some documented eveidence for that one, my provisonal calculations for the last 6 months anyway are way short of this figure.
Youre not honestly telling me that simply moving this flight to an earlier EDI departure would have stopped it getting the axe? If it had been that easy then im sure those far more in the know would have done so, saving the extra money required to set up a new heavily competitive route to NYC. We'll see how long the EDI-NYC route lasts in the planned format of 3 times daily year round service. The winter, like DL to ATL will be very telling, and perhaps we'll revisit this thread, like we've had to revisit the axing of DL to ATL, in a few months. Interesting times ahead.
