MAN had a x 21 weekly schedule as AerRyan rightly points out. FR have done amazing airport growth incentive deals, but the downside is that greedy airports like SNN accepted FR for sound bites, only to shoot themselves in the foot (look at the schedule now), to merely boost FR numbers at MAN (and other airports) to trigger volume incentive deals. The SNN region has suffered from the loss of a MAN business schedule, connectivity and two based aircraft. They were told, but would not listen. When should one strategically say no! SNN serves the taxpayer and the local economy. Short term gain sometimes = long term pain.
