True. However, St. Etienne has 178,000 inhabitants and also Lyon is not far from its airport while Dole is much smaller.
How many people from Dole will fly to Porto every year? I wish Dole very well, but to my mind a very small town should start with a connection to much bigger place for such a route to survive.

Ryanair is treating the booking system as a valuable treasury and their potential customers more and more like thieves that try to stole their precious tickets from that safe. A pity for them.
A friend of mine used to make regular searches on the FR website, something like half an hour every two weeks, it was a pleasure for him. Once a month or so he did find something and made purchases for himself or others. Yesterday he sent me a message: it's not a pleasure any more, I have to find something else. Daz, you're not alone, apparently.
