Your point re Ryanair taken, but - as opposed to Ireland - Switzerland is landlocked and to get anywhere within approx. 800 to 1,000 km you're better off taking your car. (In continental Europe, they actually drive their cars and don't blow them up outside pubs....).
The term "domestic market" as used in my post refers to a domestic route network that ultimately supports a hub (such as Zurich keeps aspiring to).
As for AUA, well....they are neither profitable nor do they have a massive long haul network. Their Lauda outfit has only a few long haul destinations. I do not think, however, that Lauda could be termed a great commercial success, either.
