Wake up and smell the coffee

Have been involved in yield management for airlines for more years than I care to remember and have yet to come across a situation where a 'for profit' airline closes down 'highly' profitable routes especially if slots are protected.

Costs of route development are well understood and chances of future profitabliity are key decision making factors in deciding to carry on with / withdraw a route.

Flybe may have disappointed some with their choices re ex BRS routes acquired from BACON but commercial suicide I am sure is not one of their drivers
