When Aer Arann did Amsterdam/Paris from Galway was it not in the leased BeE146's rather than the ATR?
It was a BeE146's which operated Malaga, Faro, Bordeaux & Amsterdam from May - October.
The flights when via WAT as the BeE146's could not take off from GWY with 100 passengers and the right amount of fuel as the runway in GWY was to short.
When the services all operated they were more popular from WAT rather than GWY.
As the sun routes finished on October 30 the Amsterdam service was done with an ATR 72 which also went via WAT.
