CAA - stats for July 2008
BELFAST CITY (GEORGE BES) 44402
BELFAST INTERNATIONAL 29962
Total = 74364
Therefore 29962/74364x100=40.29% - EI

Also they could have 80% of the traffic and still lose money
I only suggested they had 40% of traffic-they may well be losing money-I don't know

There is no real way I can see, how their timetables fit to that of businessmen nor of people wishing to make connections. For example if you go out on the BD81 you can be in London for 9am but with EI currently you dont leave belfast until after 8.30 or thereabouts on their first sortee of the day to london

If EI want a larger more business market they need a better timetable, which is what I was trying to say in my last post
