Regarding the comment on catchment areas,perhaps someone should look at a map.EMA is situated between Derby Nottingham Leicester,all within a 20mile radius of the Airport,all major cities,Birmingham is only 35 miles away and EMA gets a good quota of passengers from there,Loughborough is only 7 miles away,a major University town,i dont think DSA has this catchment.Also when another operator moves into DSA Easyjet will do the same as it did at EMA and throw its toys out of the pram and go away and sulk,they had good loads out of EMA but Jet2 were too much for them to handle,Baby and Ryanair will benefit from their childish behaviour,East midlands travellers will be no worse off losing them.
