Monarch & Ryanair
Monarch
With flybe starting Bordeaux in mid May it seems Monarch are not going to risk a second season and based on the 2013 figures who can blame them. The only flights bookable are Saturday 24 May and 31 May 2014.
The question is where will the aircraft go in place of BOD? The days and timings lend it self to re-instate the Tuesday and Thursday Nice which were originally cut for 2014 after some indifferent figures in 2013. The Saturday Bordeaux rotation was planned for morning and could easily do Spain if it started out at 06.30 - Mahon is crying out for a weekend departure as there is just a Thomson flight at present.
Ryanair - Again like pulling teeth with still several gaps in the schedule and odd frequencies on the Dublin. Milan MXP remains in the drop-down despite BGY not bookable for summer. Trieste is another long-established route cut to peak summer months. The third Dublin in July and August has reappeared on certain days but very messy.
