put all European flights via MAN. similar to the old 5th freedom operation
What a wonderful way of screwing up what you've got left in Dublin. Eliminate all non-stop flights from Dublin and hand over your shorthaul market share to Ryanair, then provide far more seats than the route between Manchester and Dublin could ever possibly need. It didn't work last time - and it's no surprise that you have nothing left of the Hamburg and Copenhagen routes, two of those involved - and most definitely won't work now.
PS - are you the recently-departed CFO in disguise? There are more than a few who suspect he was put into EI by his old boss just to make even more of a mess of the place.
