How much spare space is there at Luton overnight for A320/B737 sized aircraft ? Is winter overnight as busy as summer ? I thought LTN overnight was already pretty full... or is there a plan to free up space by making life a little more difficult for general aviation ?
4 extra stands already since last winter with more coming online (Taxiway Echo diversion NOTAM expires 14 Nov so maybe those will be ready soon after).
What these do is free up hangarline stands, NetJets already taken advantage of this.
If the ex MAEL ones can be kept clear then more likely to get tenants. aka rent and jobs.
