S16 Summary
Since everything should be pretty much confirmed I shall try to summarise S16 in this post. Overall it looks to be a very busy summer, possibly the busiest ever. For routes that have extra flights for the short peak season only I will list them next to the frequency they operate at for the majority of the summer. 'New!' routes are new for this year, I am aware a number of them have been flown previously.
