Probably..with prudent management and yes..cost cutting.

The aviation world has changed forever..so sad...
I find it hard to believe that Prestwick is more sustainable than Inverness, Newcastle, Leeds/Bradford or Exeter, if only because none of those four have an airport the size of Abbotsinch just up the road to absorb their traffic. Not sure you could describe Tyne & Wear or West Yorkshire as having 'no real population' either!
