I would have believed it would be more likely Ryanair to stuggle at LBA over LS as its Jet2's home base, they have been flying out of there for years and years and have served the area very well. Passengers are now comfortable with flying Jet2 and this is showing in the destinations they have expanded to, and are trusting Jet2 to fly to Greece, Cyrpus and also New York last year. Ryanair will find it difficult to gain customers from LS on similar routes as they have only been operating a very small hand full of flights from LBA, I say good luck to them, but also carry on the hard work LS!! If LS want to survive at LBA they had better get some thoughts for expansion, with the airport being expanded soonish, they will need to be thinking about this now and hopefully FR wont do that they did to WW at BHX by knocking them away by 3/4 aircraft!!
