As a separate UK company, Aer Lingus UK files an annual report at companies house so its all there warts and all really. It looks to me like they make about £12 profit per passenger, which does seem to be well below IAG overall and the Aer Lingus group within IAG (all of which is available in...

Is eastern europe “a huge missing gap” from MAN. It looks to have a good range of destinations and passenger numbers (per the CAA) look reasonable to me. So how are you defining ‘massive’. Unless we know the natural passenger demand to/from greater manchester to these destinations, it’s very...

Of course. And passengers who use Ryanair out of MAN might switch to them. If they are able to offer a daily service on traditionally thin routes then they might hope that the flexibility on offer is a sell. But ultimately it’s a price sensitive market and people naturally compare the options...

Apart from launching the same routes, and pricing aggressively you mean.

They’re down to operate 8 flights per week as it stands, so they just aren’t providing enough capacity for overall passengers to take a significant hit

The comment doesn't make much sense in the context of weather though. Are you sure that doesn't; refer to that brief period when there was confusion about whether some of the Qc1.0 aircraft weren't permitted to depart after 11:00 and so some late running flights had to divert to Liverpool to...

As i recall, the point being made was that Jet2 have a preference to derate the engines on take off in order to preserve engine life / reduce maintenance. So the performance issues only exist if the engines are operating on this reduced power setting. i dont think there was any suggestion that...

I‘m have a few Wizz shares in my ISA, and the half year results published on 9th November showed a 400 million euro profit for the first half of the year. The results also state that they have having to ground 45 aircraft for engine inspections from Jan 24, but that they have agreed...

They must be unable to retime it to any earlier otherwise they would have done.

Some A320s are clearly rated qc 1 based on their maximum take off weight. The night flying rules introduced in 1993 (not last month) prohibit any departures after 23:00 for aircraft rated qc 1 or higher, which is why Wizz have diverted them to LPL. Otherwise the aircraft would be locked in...
