Spanair suspension of the flight between Ibiza and Madrid

Spanair justified yesterday the suspension of the first flight in the morning that united Ibiza with Madrid at 7.40 hours for "merely economic" reasons, since "this one was not profitable for the company", according to the airline. The same sources considered that this fact "will not harm the tourism facing this season, since indeed the visitors of the islands usually do not travel by this time because to wake up this early dosen't do them any good ". From Spanair they affirmed that the suppression of this flight "does not mean a damage of the services of the company with Ibiza, since indeed this summer the frequencies with respect to 2005 although with other schedules could be increased. The costs of an airplane to the city of madrid, as well as of its crew, are very high because if this it does not interest the company to maintain it ", summarized. With respect to the declarations of the socialist deputy, Jose Ramon Mateos, where this he affirmed that this connection is profitable "because usually it goes full and its suppression has more to do with the opening of new Terminal 4", from Spanair contradicted its words assuring that "they do not have sense since Spanair operates in the T2, not in the four", and that if this slot would be profitable they would maintain it ".
