Several of the comments portray unreality & reveal perhaps the tenuous nature of the business being conducted at SEN.
It appears Stobart are being regarded in some posts as a "sugar daddy" & with a rather carefree attitude to burning the cash medium/long term in support of SEN ops.
Rather ironic that a post mentions Ryanair,easy & Wizz as not hanging around "if it ain`t making money".
I guess that's what makes all three by many yardsticks the most successful & profitable airlines in Europe then.
If STK hope to become a major player perhaps they may wish for the recent speculation here that easy were ceasing GLA-STN becoming reality & making a move themselves on GLA-STN!.
After all they will have many of the figures as part of the "Empire" now handles easy at STN..
Lease in a few airbus (no money to be made with EMB`s) & make a move on STN-MAN
STN-IOM to name another two,to start.
