On the subject of turnaround times, I've noticed many of FR's new TLV routes have turn times of 25 - 30 minutes. Nothing unusual for FR, however with other LCCs at TLV, including EZY and W6, having turn times of 50 - 55 minutes (presumably due to additional security requirements at Ben Gurion). Why do Ryanair feel they can turn aircraft round faster than the other airlines?
The added Turn times are unlikely to be anything to do with Security as the passengers should be clear of Security by then, the much bigger issue is the sheer amount of Cabin baggage that the TLV flights generate. I'm sure RYR will find this out soon.
