Don't want to spoil the KLM bandwagon...but there has been a lot of really positive news and spin,regarding the KLM increases and partnerships between the two business s....

Now I know the CAA stats are rather dubious at the moment ,but it's all we have to go on!

9 months for this year showing...minus September,November and December.

Total pax. 80737. 2015 Was 76847 same months .

Gives 14% growth...however if you bisect it all and using a very approx daily schedule of 3 (6 return)per day....gives an average increase of 2.5 pax per flight!!!!!
Now I'm not sure that KLM would be overchuffed with that....and yes we don't know fares/yields etc.

We still have 3 months to report and my gut feeling is that all three months will also be down using the DTV website and lists of cancelled flights?
It's going to be an interesting end of year figure,considering that the only other schedule route to Aberdeen has been decimated during 2016.

Time for spin guys!
