MME by at least one budget airline offering some destinations that the main players leave to the small airlines
I think the main problem with the RYR LBA decision is the lack of options it leaves for MME. Look at the bases around MME:
Easy - at NCL;
Ryanair - at LBA;
Jet2 - at NCL/LBA;
FlyBe - at NCL/LBA
Who else does that leave - bmiBaby, Globespan?
