Down 91,000 on what exactly? Let's keep things in perspective here.
For the first 8 months of this year the numbers are down less than 20,000 on last year. If that trend continues for the rest of the year there will be over 655,000 pax for the year which would make it the airport's second busiest ever. Nobody expected last years numbers to be repeated with Beauvais and Hahn dropped, the figures so far are actually a little ahead of what was forecast on here at the start of the year.
apologies iphone came up with that number some how, checked again any your correct. You talk about HHN and BVA being dropped which they carried very poor loads but a new weekly/2 weekly service to AGP started which was more less at capacity for the summer.
