Disappointing but Baby were going strong by the last week of March last year and Monarch just cut-back from their normal schedule on most routes.
If you want to look on the bright side you would have to say medium to long-haul picked up with Islamabad over 11000 just 500 short of the Heathrow figure, Emirates was down but a heavy 45K, United was up slightly as was Turkmen.
Business routes were either just up or down on the whole except Swiss due to the 33% cut in flights and Stuttgart (50% cut in flights).
Turkish was up 21% but it was daily compared to 5 a week in 2012.
easyjet Belfast was 11712 which was over 70% load factor.
