Cost of surface transport, hotels etc are also lower in Winter and it's easier to rebook passengers on alternative flights. What ever about laughing at my posts, I don't think airline managers will be laughing when they receive invoices resulting from the events of last Friday.
Just wondering if CAT 2 or CAT 3 would be left unserviceable for weeks if it failed at Heathrow, Charles De Gaulle or Schiphol. If it's technically impossible to restore it then the IAA are blameless and I'll gladly defend them.
