Im not saying in all cases theres not demand, what I mean is to what extent did RYR have to reduce fares to stimulate demand? Were these routes loss making and sustainable in the long run?? I for one would love to see BHX be RYR's biggest non London UK base, as promised. However, this for some reason hasnt materialised.

Its clear to see all over the RYR network that these routes are beginning to get the chop or dramatic freq. reduction. An example, Stansted - Salzburg, used to be double daily is now 4 weekly in the summer. Maybe due to high airport fees and a lack of demand now this route has matured. Therefore what Im saying is going forward RYR will pick strong performing routes and utilise their aircraft efficiently to get the most out of them. This is where BOHs holiday routes fall very nicely.
