As with a lot of the routes there are explanations, such as with Billund - it was announced ages ago (as previously stated) it is to end and quite rightly so, Milan would have been a higher load factor as it was scheduled with the 175 at 88 seats but one was in maintenance for a good part of the month and the 118 seat 195 operated the route distorting the figures.

Knock - are you serious, I know flybe are having their woes but chop a route after one month!!!!

Palma shouldn't have been included as it only operated for a few days and several flights would have gone out from BHX light-loaded as the last flight was something like the 6th.

I agree GIB is disappointing with the exception of one or two summer months. I would say Berlin and Stockholm, two high profile routes are at greater risk. Arlanda is a bit like some European football leagues, has a winter and summer break - currently suspended and is back late February then disappears again in July.
