Err I was replying in general to the comment re full service carriers, I don't see any mention of IT flights or loco's other than EDI having extra Ryanair
still not adding many pax.
OK fair point about the locos but you did not make that point in the post. However the difference between full service and loco is getting less and less each year and the growth area is on loco services as they squeeze the mainline carriers and this can be seen at both airports. New full service routes are not as common nowadays.
You mentioned Ryanair specifically as an issue but I believe both airports have 4 aircraft based at the moment, unless I am wrong.
