Just for the record, MAA PLC has absolutely ZERO cross financing from one aiport to another. Each is successful or not on its own merits.
Also, for the record, not one of the routes mentioned has been withdrawn permanently.
Air Canada is being made seasonal for this year.
An email from MAS says that their suspension of service is part of their restructuring, and that they will be returning in the new year.
Cathay has retained all its MAN staff, and their intention remains to return in April, and long term, the intention is for MAN-HKG to be non-stop service.
This thread stinks of sour grapes, and I don't think anyone has grounds for complaint when other airfields and other parts of the industry are in such dire straights.
