Interesting Leeds is still not on sale for S15....two aircraft...same competitors as EMA. Must be a worry for anyone based in Yorkshire.
The fact the the news release only mentions one base for the chop suggests a brighter future for the other (LBA) as from a
PR point of view it's better to get all the negative news out in one release, rather than drip feeding it over two.
This could also suggest that the 2 units being lost from EMA might be moved into LBA, making a bigger, more efficient base - or alternatively BHX, MAN, LTN or LGW getting extra units, with more routes / frequencies to be announced in due course.
All conjecture - as I have absolutely no inside knowledge!!
