Given the disastrous performance to date on Belfast-Stansted, I think it would take a very brave (or very rich) person to suggest replicating the rest of the domestic routes into Stansted.

And before everyone jumps down my throat about this comment:

May10 (with significant volcanic ash disruption) - Ryanair carried 27,437 passengers on 3 x daily 737 on BHD-STN.

May11 (with one day of ash disruption) - bmibaby carried 6,842 passengers on 3 x daily 737 on BHD-STN.

I make that about 33% loadfactor. Must be losing their shirts on that one given the usual Belfast yields.

Why are they bothering?
