Well... either IB/UX will reduce prices to keep Ryanair and other LCCs from increasing their 28%, or Ryanair will just steal any attractive business.
I think international routes will be the bigger issue. No effective competition at all for Argentina, Peru, Caribbean, etc. Norwegian must be thrilled at the opening...
