Call me stupid but not you need flights to fill two terminals? Talk about a waste of money from an airport already seriously struggling!
This is effectively the beginning of the end for MME. Rather than excite pax and attract more, it will further confuse and disengage the local population who will be driven to NCL and LBA.
What Peel have announced is simply a mothballing of part of the terminal and a recognition that the aiport cannot sustain year round charter and low cost services.
It is a downsizing exercise that sadly will never be reversed once the 'separation' begins.
P.S These so called 'premium' pax to SOU, ABZ and AMS I am sure will have been well and truely put off by the recent snow debacle and no doubt will be booking from LBA and NCL in the near future.
