Could this have something to do with the Share Buy Back announced back in Feb?
On Sky news a few days ago MOL was heard to say that RYR has hedged their fuel through to the middle of 2009.
Just as a matter of little or no interest, all the airlines that have ever tried to compete with LH on the FRA-TXL route have been blown away by the monopoly carrier. Think of German Wings, Aero Lloyd, Berlin Spezilflug, DBA, Templehof Airways and others left in the dust.
German Wings offered a premium service on MD83s but got bad slots, bad parking and long delays from FRA airport.
LH fly an A330 on the hour, every hour to and from Berlin and Frankfurt. When German Wings came along they simply reduced the price to such an extent that neither of them made any money. LH could carry the loss, German Wings couldn't.
Even with RYRs huge cash mountain, they can only keep that route going for a limited time, IMO.
