Una Due Tfc
Very hard to make money on that BHD runway with a jet, especially on a wet day. Thats why FR left
If EI like FR had a restriction as to how many seats they could sell per flight, this might be true. But not the case.
EI had great summer especially on sun routes, LHR doing well . LGW will be ok provided EZY don't step in next year and I wouldn't rule that out. At this stage some of the slots from BE have not been allocated to particular routes . If this would happen EI would simply move capacity to previous successful routes like BCN and ALC.
I can't see EI giving up on Belfast they have invested too much and to be fair to them have tried many routes albeit I think the timing of these was bad, I.e, a very difficult year they entered the market.
