Indeed it's very possible the pax figures will go down not up!
SOU needs investment! Full stop.
I don't think it's 'SOU bashing', it's more an expression of frustration by those who care about the airport at the lack of investment, and therefore possible decline. Posts like this were normal fare on the SEN thread for years, and SEN was in
a very parlous state until Stobart came along, spent about £150 million and crucially extended the runway by nearly 1000 ft.
I know Stobart leave a lot to be desired when it comes to running an airport/airline, but SEN does well in Which surveys for customer satisfaction.
SOU starts with a much higher base than SEN, so let's hope it's onward and upwards.
