FR holding a press conference to announce flights out of Milan-MXP (T1) on Wednesday.
Wonder if it will be just a transfer of the 10 domestic routes at BGY and perhaps the odd INT route and perhaps a return to Rome-Milan market
Easyjet's domestic could be an interesting one to watch over the next year if they do transfer all domestic routes.

Prepare for it to get messy and the bottom to fall out on ticket prices!
-------------------------------------------------
I wonder how the taxiing and turnaround situation will suit Ryanair at AMS, depending on the runway you land on, you can regularly have a 20 minute taxi to the gate. This eats into valuable to turnaround time.

Naples would be the most remarkable news - a large white spot on the FR routemap until now!

The turnaround starts when the aircraft arrives on stand, taxi time is irrelevant.
At AMS I can envisage them coming off 36R stuck behind a dawdling EVA Air or the like, looking for an overtaking opportunity
Or is that just me?

Landing Config,
Taxi time is highly relevant and outside of cost one of the main reasons that FR haven't jumped at many large airports, though that is changing...
FA10,
Re Naples, how long until FR do open a base there? EasyJet have retreated from bases are MAD and FCO. And more than every FR seem to be challenging easyJet more than ever...big opposition on domestics ex STN recently, AMS seems to be set for go, CPH routes etc.
EasyJet dont waste money usually fighting it out on new routes, but it seems likely easyJet will need to face the challenge more rigorously...

In the past it was RYR who kept away from major airports and opened up the provincial airports. They trumpeted, often correctly, that with short taxi times, low ATC congestion = no delays, fast baggage collection times, good enough public transport that the pax got to their destination faster than via the major hub. easyjet often chose the major hub. RYR kept out of their way. Then, a few years ago, e.g. MAN, MAD, FCO et al RYR followed ez into some of those major hubs. You're have to analyse the routes to see how much head to head there was, but by venturing into expensive major hubs, and following the orange ball, RYR seemed to be adjusting its model. In 2000 ez was AMS's 2nd largest user after KLM, even though they didn't have a base there; they had many movements in/out and wanted desperately to have a base. They cancelled the idea of a base in 2001. AMS's resistance, and other logistics to scheduling changed their mind. The growth of the airline, and a change of heart in AMS, has now opened up the opportunity. For RYR it is a major change, although I thought MAD was also a major shift in strategy and certainly FCO. Latino attitudes and Irish ones don't mix. I can see MOL tearing his hair out soon. CPH proved a major hub too far. We'll see about AMS. Both those northern countries have a tinge of Latino in their culture.

FR use either a 25 or 35 minute turnaround, the latter becoming much more common across Spanish and some major airports. 35 minutes is more less normal for most carriers now days anyway. LGW gets 30 minutes.
Anyway flight times are from push back to arrival on stand.

They are adding DUB AMS to penetrate more of the Aer Lingus network. Simples. AMS may be a bit different to BRU for them as Aer Lingus has strong feed to KLM from that route, where as BRU wouldn't have nearly as much, but it has other stuff like government ministers etc...
Aer Lingus will do a good job holding its own and with growing transatlantic feed the AMS route will survive..

Does anyone know when reservation for flights in March and April open? A lot of flights from Manchester are showing as sold out for these times and I can't imagine they're fully booked already?
