2xDaily STN; daily (as opposed to 5xWeekly) LPL; 6xWeekly BHX; 5xWeekly PIK. That's 24 extra flight already by adjusting the schedules on current routes.
Is there the demand? I know the schedule used to look like that but it was reduced so one has to ask why?
Lack of a base so no dedicated aircraft to timetable properly instead having to rely on availability from other bases?
Low yields?
Low loads?
Better profit to be made using the aircraft elsewhere while Ryanair were growing rapidly and had fewer planes than now?
But Ryanair even parked up 14 aircraft last winter instead of using one for additional flights at LDY. You've got to ask why . . . .
