it looks like 2010 will be a lot better for Cork Airport!!
Today was certainly a good news day for Cork
But as it stands, 2010 will be worse than 2009 if comparing capacity for Summer 2010 with Summer 2009:
Aer Arann - little increase (Belfast reduced, Nantes cut, Lorient cut)
Aer Lingus - small increase (Heathrow reduced, Gatwick announced, shorter sectors)
Air Southwest - insignificant
Bmibaby - decrease
Jet2.com - small decrease
Ryanair - huge decrease
Wizz Air - small increase
Ryanair's huge decrease outweighs all the other increases.
Of course if the rumoured Ryanair expansion plans for Cork were correct, then this is indeed going to be a fantastic boost for Cork, but right this minute we're looking at another miserable year dispite good news of the RE/EI front...
