did you forget Aer Arann to ORK on your BHD list?
cuthere, you are right totally left Aer Arann out. How could I!
So the data should look like

Typical Daily November Monday schedule from the 2 airports in Belfast;

Belfast BFS-53 departures,7656 (56.46% of total Belfast scheduled seats)
Belfast BHD-57 departures,5903(43.54% of total Belfast scheduled seats)

Seems like a big shift in share of activity and seats. Last winter it was busier at BFS but it was close(based on frequenies). Come February it will be significant when BFS Lose LTN (about 20k pax per month) and BHD gain potentially half of that.

In the calculation of seats this may not be 100% correct given that Some Easyjet services are 156 seaters (made best estimation this) and Flybe use a mix of 195 and 400s on BHX and MAN, so not easily worked out.

As already mentioned with the addition of extra FR services on EMA and LPL and the fact that BRS was not operating last winter, also the fact that Aer Lingus have cut activity compared with Last winter. The split in Passengers may not be awfully per airport.
