The Dublin flights are handled by Aer Arran and Ryanair moving out is I'm quite sure no great loss to the airport, having promised the earth and doing the square root of diddly squat once they arrived.
Passenger figures are well up on last year, yes they need to do a lot more work but maybe we should stop trying to compare ourselves with other airports nearby, we have a very different catchment.
Forgive me if im wrong, but what is the good news ? FCA are starting the long haul early in February, i cant see this as the FCA long haul is operating from Bristol.
