Couldn't agree more. Virtually nothing has materialised over the last 3/4 months as was intimated. Indeed, from a source ' close to the action', several new routes and up to three new airlines were expected to have announced ops by this time. What have we got - two new routes from easy!!!!!! Wow. No new ryan, no expansion by Monarch, Flybe decreased from a daily summer Jersey to saturday only, Now dead in the water and as for new airlines, where are they, STN & LGW of course.
In the goverments white paper the airport was given permission in principal to increase passenger numbers to 30m over the next 25 years. At this rate LTN will still be trying to get to 10m.
As an aside, had heard that Jet2 might possibly be in the frame. . They have done a deal with TBI at BFS re LBA & PRG but can't really see Jet2 sitting in easy's garden, even if it was on totally different routes. However PRG would go down a storm at LTN.
