Stay or go I'm sure people made their decision based on what will provide the most good for the greatest amount of people.
I would expect failed management are happy about it and will use it for all sorts of brexcuses. If somethings not working, not performing well then they will be cut and Brexit used as a blanket excuse for poor management in a whole host of industries. It is the ultimate get out of jail card for today's MBAs - "it wasn't my fault Mrs Shareholder, can I still have my millions please?".
EK - you've changed your tune. You've always wanted more and more operators and a FR base. Has the penny dropped that there's only so much trade to go around the airlines? Not only that but the arrival of new operators trashes yields as they cherry pick routes and over supply them.
Supply is good. The further we get from the days if the £600 Europe return the better however over supply and you'll not be any better off as frequencies.
There will be two new routes announced very soon apparently.
