Pula and Zadar are likely to be summer routes and both expected to come back at the beginning of the s08 schedule. think about charter services to Split, Dubrovnik, Zadar and Pula, as well : they do not run from Nov to Apr from UK and Ireland airports cos the hotels usually shut down or they are opened with limited services/facilities, hence tour operators do not include these destinations in their winter brochures, the same is gonna do FR. Sea water is pretty cold from the mid of Oct onward !
well, and i guess Rodez, Brest and Balaton services from STN or LTN will share the same fate of the Croatian ones.

i do believe it's a smart move from Fr to cut the typical summer destinations (Croatia's coastal resorts, Lake Balaton) or the smallest ones (like Rodez) during the cold months....but im still suprised for Almeria, which works perfectly year-round, even during the winter time, due to many British people having a property or relatives down there..seems like easyJet is axing this destination from LGW, too..at least for the w07/08.

The only destinations that are definitively dropped, at the moment, are : Esbjerg in Denmark, Malmö in Sweden and Vitoria in Spain...we'll see what's gonna happen next year, when the s08 schedule will be released.
