You can just look at a UK map showing the motorway network to see what airports are easy to get to.
You can hate the place but there is no London airport easier to get to from the whole of the Midlands than Luton. Southend might as well be on the moon and Stansted is not that much better.
I do think that Southend could well struggle to attract new airlines with Stansted looking for new opportunities.
So how is Southend doing in attracting executive jet traffic away from other London Airports? I hear that it has made no impact what so ever but I am too far from Southend to know that for a fact.
