Where will the extra passengers come from? Please explain. In SNN Ryanair offered a cheaper service which pulled passengers that flew from DUB/ORK/NOC on other services and allowed people to make more trips to MAN.
WX will offer a more expensive service, that will allow business passengers who already fly to Heathrow to fly that route.
Where will the extra pax come from?
You answered your own question, the cheaper fares FR will have to offer ex Cork will pull passengers back.....if WX and FR charge the same price (ie FR current high fares) then plenty of passengers would move to WX so FR will have to drop.
I bet if SNN had the route you wouldn't be asking such stupid questions.....or put it this way where will the extra passengers come from to fill the A320 EI will return to SNN??
