In this part of SE Spain, MOL does not have much room to negotiate, as all the airports of note are run by AENA
wowzz, now this is a bit of a flawed theory, it would seem that each airport are quite autonomous, e.g. Girona and Barcelona El Prat. It did seem that FR playing 2 aena airports off against one another, true or not true?
Furthermore, what is the latest on FR at ALC for summer 2012? What level of reduction will actually transpire, it would seem that the base is super profitable in peak season (strong loads, good frequency and what would seem to be high fares), so despite challenges around using jetties etc, it would seem that ALC is a compelling case in terms of profit. If FR is significantly down on last year at ALC, the impact on passenger numbers will be interesting. Based on the performace of 2012 summer, it will be interesting to see exactly what level of 'room to negotiate that FR will have'.
