But the catchment area is comparably much smaller than LHR/LGW, draw a circle with STN at the centre and you have a lot of green fields, fewer if you do so at LGW, and much fewer for LHR.
Slight change of username there Skippness. Same old anti-Stansted rhetoric however
Clearly EK know what they’re doing with this route and it’s working for them. Watch it grow.
