RYR presently have around 34 aircraft based at STN, 24 of which are B738's and which will probably increase this summer. Millions of passengers but not a lot of money in return.
They are very aggressive in keeping costs down, hence the low fares, but airports must also keep costs down if much of the traffic is low cost otherwise there is little money to be made.
Also low cost passengers tend not to spend much in the terminal shops, probably because it is costing them very little to fly and because they know shopping on the continent can be a lot cheaper. So the retail people at the airport will need to think of a way of making these extra passengers spend money.
Having flown RYR several times you cannot fault the product (provided you read the terms and conditions of the ticket). It is often a lot cheaper than a day out in a UK city. So lets hope NCL benefits
