I accept that LPL and MAN do a fine job serving the North West and that given the proximity of one airport to the other, growth at either airport is good news for the locals. What I was trying to flesh out is what proportion of traffic comes from further afield. 1.1 million charter passengers per month is not sustainable from the North West alone, so how much is coming from Yorkshire / East Midlands / North East / Scotland. / Northern Ireland. Are these trends different for the scheduled routes, which also looks over-egged for the North West alone?
