Before this "easyJet to Carlisle" malarkey spreads any further, have a look at the new terminal plans approved last month and try and imagine 150 pax in there...

Anyone got the dates for the Carlisle closure for the runway realignment??
See the Fire Cover has been permanently reduced is that because of the closure?

They're not realigning the runway, they're sticking with the existing alignment and length but "raising and re-profiling" it. The realigned runway proposal dates back to 2007 but was withdrawn the following year when it got called in by central government.

Imminent and definitely opening next summer, according to a Stobart executive quoted in the local newspaper. The meeting was about the bonkers scheme to extend the Borders line to Carlisle.

Amazing though when you consider the “Kerfuffle” to obtain the land against a lot of local opposition,to sell the centre off so quickly? No doubt we will hear a statement re the airport soon.
Stobart sold the distribution centre in February 2016 and is leasing it under a 20 year agreement. Value has increased by nearly £7m in past 18 months.
