[QUOTE=LTNman;11508875]A321’s replacing A320’s replacing A319’s would suggest maybe no new based aircraft. The claim made is that the quieter times will be filled in with extra movement’s. If that is the case non based aircraft would possibly be used.
With a possible recession in the U.K. and in more of Europe next year the airport might struggle to reach this year’s totals.[/QUOTE
LTNman Germany has been in recession the last two quarters! The Bank of of England has put in measures to mitigate a recession in the U.K.
Unfortunately both France and Germany are having to top up EU funding because various EU Member states can not afford to contribute!
Think positive. London Luton Airport is positioned in one of the busiest airspaces in the World meaning growth is guaranteed because it’s a top destination for air passengers.
I still remember when back in the early eighties a typical day at the airport there were on average 45 flight movements a day. Today it’s over 340 plus! Any increase in growth equates to more people employed and increased income and therefore profit,
