God this debate is pointless! Across the UK house prices are down over 20% from the peak and still falling 1-2% per month. This is a cr*ppy situation and to say prices haven't fallen in some small town in Scotland is irrelevent.
What matters is bums on seats for airline pilots and this is getting much worse. It is not house prices in Inverness that matter.... it is the UK average and the general health of the city of London.... it is here the majority of highly profitable business class seats originate for the likes of BA etc.
I think we are getting a bit sidetracked here.... did you see Easyjets Feb passenger numbers... think I saw something on the news says they were down 7% year on year
Looks like even the lowcos aren't immune after all
