CAA stats
It is encouraging to see the LGW flight grow. The load factor for July was 76% which is very good.
However, Ryanair's STN flights showed good growth over last year at 16128 (giving load factor of just below 70% (assuming 2 a day frequency)up from 6988 same month LY.

Liverpool No record in CAA stats for this route. Strange
East Midlands No figures returned for 09. LY 4905
Luton 9485 TY 10217 LY
Bristol 0 TY 3993 LY
Glasgow 0 TY 2092 LY
Overall on the UK routes it shows a drop in passengers, however that measure excludes Liverpool and East Midlands. Making an assumption of these 2 routes numbers being similar to last year I think that the airport did quite well for the month.
However as stated earlier Charter work doing well this year (not sure on year on year numbers) aswell as the new Alicante route which is only 2 per week. Some good performances especially STN and LGW!
