Ryanair

OliWW

I am not sure it means anything with Ryanair. BHX was similar until last
week with 5 based aircraft required, 6 on some days and 7 on another.

What happened last week, frequencies were cut drastically on some routes and Faro became a Faro based aircraft one of the days. Net
result it appears to be four based again (although you never know)
and less flights than 2009 due to the Canaries flights utilizing the
aircraft for longer.

The difference between BHX and EMA though is that BHX operators
are cutting back or stagnant but EMA you have Jet2 and Baby increasing.

Therefore they might see things differently and fight fire with fire at
EMA and no need to do anything at BHX.

I would keep an eye on the booking engine.
