Its a tough market going forward and its hard seeing where growth will come from other than incumbents. Hopefully TUI will keep expanding as next year sees Cancun as well as Sanford for long haul in addition to the three based aircraft. The long hoped for hub connection is no nearer and looks as far off as ever, KLM seem to find slots at slot constrained Schipol whenever they need them - they have the best coverage of the UK regions out of all carriers and so would seem them most likely candidate to do something but aren't interested. The Brexit cloud doesn't phase Wizz who keep expanding - if they were concerned by Brexit they have a funny way of showing it as Chisinau, Timisoara and Krakow have been the most recent additions. If a low cost carrier such as Vueling can't be tempted in to provide a link to Barcelona or the Costa's then its status quo unless Wizz are prepared to base, which then leaves the annual passenger total around 1.5M.
