Ryanair 2016

I concur that 3 based aircraft looks most likely. However, note that the 4 per day Dublin now appears to be via Dublin based aircraft (in itself a risk). French routes appear to have been sacrificed which I assume fits in with the business model moving away from smaller destinations - but in the process losing subsidy? Tenerife and Gran Canaria rotations are laughable but more in line with position when the fifth August aircraft was not operational. As I have posted elsewhere, interesting times for FR as they seem more inclined to go head to head with rival carriers (eg versus easyJet on Copenhagen to Luton, EI from Amsterdam to Dublin). They have deep reserves, but if individual carriers chose to stick up to them as easyJet are doing at Luton, there could be bottom line implications. They will not be getting any concessions at AMS - time to start shorting their stock could be on the horizon!
