The service to Eastern Europe, Amsterdam and Paris from EMA is well below the underlying natural demand from this region. The figures are there for all to see.
Can't understand the poor services to both which were well served in the past. Surely considering some of the regional airports they serve KLM could give it a go?

Paris is an odd one especially with high demand likely this summer for the Euro 2016 finals (I'm flying from LHR as nothing at EMA)
