short field takeoff aircraft still need sufficient runway length for a fully loaded and fuelled aircraft eg, canaries, turkey etc

Galway runway length: 1,289m/4230ft
Donegal runway length: 1496m/4908ft
Sligo airport runway length: 1,199m/3,933ft
There's a bit of a difference in runway length, so no, to Ireland at least.

If you search for flights from FRA using Ryanair fare finder you see lots of destinations offered for 4, 5 or 7 euros to fly in May. With FRA charges those discounted seats must be heavy loss making. I think they might be able to offset airport charges with ancillary revenue when they offer those dirt cheap lead-in fares at HHN but I really doubt it is possible at FRA fees levels.

They’ve already flown from INV & HUY, nothing stopping them flying to NWI in the past, been summer holiday charters there for years. GWY is actually closed as a commercial airport (or is very close to it), NOC & SNN just up & downnthe road too. LDY not far from CFN, SXL no chance same with CBG (STN quite close) & OXF. Maybe WAT if they ever get that runway extension, a return to where it all began & a LON route would do well but then again, not exactly a million miles from Dub & ORK. Stornoway & Sumburgh, who knows? Few weekly flights could work I suppose.

Well, going by their website, Edinburgh to Stansted drops from 4-5 flights each week day to just 4 flights a week - Thur Fri and Sunday evenings and Saturday morning, and no flights at all after October. It's not just Flybe that can't make money on domestic flights.

Maybe, but I suspect that these domestic passengers are less likely to purchase the additional items - seat selection, checked bags, etc - which now form such a large part of their revenue. Remember that the actual cost per person is about £50. I suspect they're not achieving anything like that.
