yet what may be a small core of interested parties get their way and a questionable Brussels route is launched last summer and is reduced for the upcoming summer schedule. That speaks volumes for Cork - Brussels, does it not?
Aer Lingus will use a Cork based aircraft to operate Shannon to Faro 3 times weekly in the summer. Something's gotta give... I flew from Brussels to Cork last night. Busy flight, >80% load factor. Lots of business men and women booking last minute (€€€) A high level of advanced seat selection (€€€) A good rate of in-flight purchases (€€€) Surprisingly also people waiting at the luggage belt (€€€)... But hey, Shannon to Faro is obviously more profitable in the summer (lower landing charges, higher luggage charges, etc. etc.)...
