AerRyan, yes Ryanair are very forthcoming with routes, no one disagrees with that and good on them. They have pushed boundaries where no other operator would. Norwegian have also and good on them too. When I worked in revenue, for a long time I might add, two of the largest markets for transfer passengers were Lisbon/Oporto and Copenhagen. Fares were high especially when BMI had the Belfast market all to itself. The tobacco industry connection was always a money spinner for BMI for Star Alliance as Murray Sons closed production in Belfast and Gallaher outsourced pipe tobacco production to Orlik in Denmark. That connection still exists as a lot of workers transferred to Orlik. I just think Copenhagen would be a great addition as the market is there.
