Who, when and where? I've never seen this said anywhere on the forum. I was not at all impressed with FCO getting axed and then not having anyone call me about the axing that's for sure. There's no way that there are only 5 people or even 50 people on that plane, even during the slower weeks of the winter sked. If they cancelled the route because it was unprofitable that's one thing but I suspect that it was cancelled because it simply broke close to even - so they could reinstate SCL and EZE service, for example.</font>
I know the exact reason why FCO was cancelled. The general reason was because that flight wasn't making money even though loads were high. It has nothing to do with EZE or GRU. (That 5 pax comment was an exagerration but you got my point - they can't operate a flight if all they are doing is losing buckets of money everyday.)
