Given the 263 and Metrolink both run until late presumably they'll be no need for those services if they originate from Altrincham instead of Manchester Airport? Also as MCT interwork the 18 and 288 evening services, possibly the 288 timetable will need revising to keep the same PVR on their evening services?

I'm not sure when the 18 contract is up, but I see no need for it to exist subsidised on the new routing. Heavy duplication of the 263&245. The contract would be far better used to say give the x5 an evening service as far as sharston (retaining a direct service to parts of sale moor/northern moor, and multiple interchange opportunities).
