Yet Ryanair could be hemorrhaging massively on the route, high LFs no longer give an insight into how a route performs. It's all down to GOBR (Generated On-Board Revenue) these days.

I disagree, I spent €250pp+(€70bag) on my holiday flights this summer, I plan on spending about €5 on the plane. Less if I'm on a €70 return flight to Paris.
I don't really get this, when Beauvais had low LF's it was said that it will fail, when it has high ones its noe said that they don't matter its all alternate revenues.

How the BVA route is performing is only known by FR relevant people. High load factor is an indicator, the higher the better, however, not only is it how much yield on the tickets, but it's the on-board sales and ancillary revenues. More than all of that is the toss up as to if other markets offer more.
Let's hope it is maintained.

if we go back a few years wasnt one of the main reasons ryanair had a large base at shannon was that buy on board sales were a large makeup of their operations at shannon. can it be said the fact that Beauvais is now starting to improve in terms of numbers anyways shows the new shannon airports management strategy of retention is showing results

Shannon with FR was at one stage twice daily - against a twice daily AF service - so at the current x3 weekly the route should do well for the summer.
Aer Lingus failed on SNN CDG so the route is marginal without transit pax.
Could RE operate an AT72 to AMS with an KL codeshare?

Aside from KLM's rules, it's an awful long way in an ATR.
160NM longer than Stobart's current longest route (DUB-RNS).
You're looking at close to 3 hours, which isn't good for aircraft utilization and isn't going to be great for passenger comfort.
