That particular airline seems to do very well at STN but what about the longhaul that is being discussed? Did you analyse that data by any chance? Does seem that most longhaul that starts at STN doesn’t seem to last. Logic seems to say that it should be successful but has always failed. Could this be due to low cost image of the airport maybe?
