On the money howard as I have found to my cost. I booked for AGP for end of July with JET2, and since I booked the airfare has dropped, can only be lack of demand. Booking for 4 pax has hurt my pocket.
I have booked Lanzarote from Man End May/June and thankfully I am not watching that routes airfare tumble.

Probably but without any imminent expansion from JET2, I think BLK have to attract another carrier in order to be a credible international airport - Recent events have shown, BLK can't rely on JET2 for their survival IMO.
