EZY reductions 2010
Now posted on their website are the summer 2010 schedules, which seem to show a small reduction in numbers of flights over this year.
In the first week of July I found:
Aberdeen 12 departures per week
Alicante 14
Amsterdam 18
Athens 0 (ends 27 March)
Barcelona 14
Belfast Harbour 13
Belfast Intl 0 (ends 30 June)
Berlin 12
Bordeaux 10
Budapest 7
Cagliari 0 (ends 27 March)
Paphos 3
Dortmund 13
Edinburgh 0 (ends 30 June)
Faro 14
Geneva 14
Glasgow 20
Grenoble 0 (ends 18 April)
Hamburg 6
Ibiza 7
Inverness 8
Istanbul SAW 7
Krakow 7
Lisbon 14
Madrid 14
Palma 14
Malaga 15
Mahon 5
Milan Malpensa 6
Montpellier 5
Nice 14
Paris CDG 16
Pisa 7
Sharm el Sheik 4
Tel Aviv 6
Turin 0 (ends 18 April)
Vienna 0 (ends 27 March)
Warsaw 0 (already ended)
Zurich 12
Total per week 331
(At 80% LF, 52 weeks per year this represents about 4.3 million pax)
I understand that Grenoble and Turin are winter-only routes. I had already heard that Athens, Cagliari and Vienna are to be dropped next year. The surprises are Edinburgh (which I presume just hasn't been loaded yet) and Belfast International (which I thought was continuing to run once daily in parallel with BHD)
Can someone say whether this represents the much-vaunted "20% reduction"? This week anna.aero says that EZY has 293 weekly flights at present, although that is in November rather than July.
