So for three 200 seat aircraft and potential to grow serious expansion is certainly on the cards - what is the talk at the moment? Something like 50 percent additional space in departures or even more?
I wish SEN the best of luck. For departing from London, I avoid the larger London airports like the plague and usually travel via LCY. SEN is a similarily enjoyable experience and I hope it will be able to keep much of its small airport feel and advantages.
Yes indeed. Hopefully the schedules, when released, will show the early departures to be staggered between the quieter hours from 0730-0900. Are there any plans to build a multi-storey car park on the airport? I doubt if the existing will be large enough.
