I don't think HUY would realistically take more than a single based TUI aircraft anyway, something like the ABZ or NWI kind of schedule. The rest would likely go to EMA, LBA or MAN.

As for the Mexico and Florida routes, EMA or STN could be contenders for those, unless they're just incorporated into MAN.

I'm of the opinion that of course we don't want to see airports close and significant job losses. But those jobs have to be sustainable and the airport financially viable and sadly that's never really been the case. I think it would be wrong for taxpayers to pay for an airport that will support no more than a few holiday flights when there's plenty of more financially viable alternatives already available.
