Flights through FRA (and just a bit on Manchester Beer & Cider Fest)

Should have mentioned that the major cost cutting involved using small airports and bargaining hard on handling costs - paying around a tenth of the costs for using Memmingen rather than Frankfort. Also, not using airbridges, cutting out baggage handling and time wasting freight (though I think they'll come back to freight one day). Also getting maximum air time for aircraft and screwing down Boeing on the price of 737s, which no one wanted before Ryanair proved how to make money out of them!
