have to say that the press release announcing the above news is really disappointing. Has anybody proofread it?
Firstly, the release date is given as 03/11/2024. That is just wrong. We're in ENGLAND, not New Hampshire.
Secondly, my pet hate: rounded numbers! READERS CAN UNDERSTAND THE ACTUAL FIGURES!!! If the actual number of passengers handled in February was 1,900,000 precisely, then I will come back on here and post a humble apology. However, if the real number was something else, then can you please show your audience some respect and tell us the actual figure? We can't make meaningful historic comparisons with lazy incomplete numbers.
Finally, the press release reveals a new thrice-weekly Boeing 737 schedule to Casablanca with Royal Air Maroc. Great news. So good that it surely deserves a press release of its own?
Is the clue not in the term "press release"? Would this market want to know the exact number? BTW, the notice available through the media centre on the website is dated "11 March 2024" and also says "
we have a few more announcements up our sleeves."

The full figures normally come out in a MAG press release covering all the group airports
