If and when they are approved,it's going to take some time before the airport gets increased traffic .This is only if Easy or other big carriers are attracted,it's not a forgone conclusion,so let's not jump ahead just yet.
You would however hope that the airport are already actively seeking a loco as the MD has publicly stated that a longer runway will be ready for S20, and with growth aspirations in the public domain, new investment is not going to be built to lie under utilised!
