Through the winter also, the FR7403/4 is a KUN based aircraft doing a W through CPH.

It allows FR to continue serving an early morning flight into London without a base in CPH. Quite a clever bit of scheduling really.

The other three flights are LTN based, although the FR2679/8 does a W to CRL from CPH in-between.

Hope that helps.
Wow, respect for working that out...

The Ryanair schedule baffles me and is so complex! (But it must work.)

I remember taking the early morning Luton to Dublin service a year or two ago, as I disembarked and entered the terminal at Dublin they were making the final call for the Dublin to Luton flight.

For a moment, I thought how can they be making the final call when us people arriving from Luton were still leaving the aircraft. Instead however the return flight to Luton was with another aircraft from a different gate.

It baffled me why they would do this, when the Luton based aircraft which flew me to Dublin, would be ready for a flight 10-15 minutes later to go back to Luton. But was instead operating Dublin to Reus, when I checked the departure boards.
