With this first release there actually seems to be significant reductions compared to this summer alone. Notably at MAN, GLA and LTN where i expect there will be a reduction in aicraft based. With the loss of long haul at STN i wonder if this will be transferred to another regional airport or await adding potential long haul routes / frequencies at MAN/LGW...
I do believe you're right in saying the Jet2 effect. They have really dumped in on the market this year. Extra aircraft, new bases and significant undercutting on Jet2Holidays prices to competing Thomson and Thomas Cook destinations... How long can they continue to do that for though is the question. It wont be sustainable for long.
