DTVAirport - it is always nice to hear of someone with optimism, but your optimism will be accepted by others only if there is a visible reason to have positive thoughts.
Give good objective reasons to convince others why things are looking up, and people will back you.

Alas, the most positive thing I can think of, is that the Turkish and Southampton routes closed over a year ago, so the decline in monthly passengers numbers compared to the month a year earlier has now largely stopped. Thus, I expect passengers numbers for winter 2012/13 to be largely similiar to those in winter 2011/12. I'm struggling to find a reason as to why things are improving.
Or to put it another way, the patient has stopped losing blood, but they are not getting better.

Perhaps you could indicate some of the reasons as to why you think in 2014, MME will be in a healthy position ?
