January 2010 passenger figures
A creditable performance, especially as it was achieved without a significant increase in flights. In fact, atms were down 2.4 % on January 2009.
CEO Robert Sinclair is quoted in the press that passenger numbers would have been up around 5% over January 2009 had the severe weather not intervened.
He also spoke about continued growth throughout 2010 "with the summer potentially our busiest ever".
CO to EWR
Further to the recent discussion on the BRS EWR route, the BRS website carries an item today regarding another promotion of the route jointly by the airline and airport in the South West and South Wales that mentions around 50% per cent of passengers having a destination beyond Newark.
