The numbers will drop back down after September but probably just back to the levels of previous years or thereabouts. I don't think there's much scope for further winter expansion until the economy picks up so Knock needs to chase growth in the summer months, which they have succeeded in doing this year.

I don't know that Kaunas was ever announced as a year round route, it was only ever bookable until October. As it will be commencing from Shannon I don't think it will be back next year. It will be interesting to see if there is any scope for growth in summer 15 but it will be a few months before we will find out. Hopefully the Eindhoven and Glasgow routes can be maintained and allowed to establish themselves. It sounds like Cologne is doing well but it is hard to get numbers for the non UK routes as the CSO figures are so hopelessly far behind real time.

It would be nice to see the 100k pax mark exceeded for the first time this month.
