Playing devil's advocate here but perhaps MOL did know all about the rules of the route support scheme. This could be the perfect opportunity for him to shuffle a few routes around and get zero charges on the first year of a new route. For example the EMA route could be switched to LBA. Low cost airlines are going to look at every possible way to avoid costs especially in the current economic climate. The trouble with sliding scale route incentive schemes is that they become less attractive as time goes by. It all depends on the exact agreement signed by both parties. Although it is annoying it is completely understandable what RYR are doing and of course the outcry by the two apparently discruntled parties (RYR/Cork airport) has just added publicity.
Just my thoughts,
