For the Sharm route I personally think it would be better to open it from Liverpool rather than Manchester due to the Manchester market being rather saturated with the route already whereas Liverpool has none. Maybe more routes like that from Liverpool would make more money than from Manchester due to no competition e.g. Paphos etc. If this was to happen I'd guess another A320 on the way to LPL.
I would still like to see Manchester have a very large presence at Manchester but do think those routes would be better off at LPL. Are there any other routes this year to be released from MAN? I hope so!!
