easyJet have remained profitable at the EMA base without having any need to expand it. All of their routes, despite many being in competition with more than one low-cost airline, are all successful, so short of a rumoured move to DSA which has been doing the rounds since that airport opened, I see no reason for them needing to change their EMA operations. The reason I asked earlier up the page, is it has been suggested that Go's initial five year contract with the airport comes up for renewal in February, which means there might be scope for the airport negotiating more routes or whatever happens in these recontracting things.

Sixth bmibaby aircraft confirmed apparently, though no signs of new routes, perhaps we're waiting for after the BHX announcement. Existing aircraft also to be better utilised apparently, though no idea where to, or whether there's just going to be more frequencies on existing routes. Rumours abound about what's happening with baby's CSAs & dispatchers at the airport, all to be revealed next month apparently.
