0.0065% of non revenue business
At one level, I don't disagree. Shannon's non-transit and non-domestic business actually did register an increase.
The problem is just the messing. The blatant messing, and the attitudes that go with it.
And I'm afraid I have to quibble. I can almost anticipate that you'll say your intention was to cite percentages in decimal format. Unfortunately, there isn't enough trust for me to accept that.
Because, you see, you've two decimal places too many. Its 0.65% of Shannon's business. If you rounded it, it would be 1%. !% is actually quite a lot, for a gimmick.
Putting it in context, the Santa flights carried the equivalent of more than two average days of Shannon traffic.
Not a small thing. Worth commenting on.
