Only BHX offers some sort of chance, with no low cost carrier based there (yet).
Ryanair has had a 4 aircraft BHX base since 2008...
If the airport cooperated the idea was (is?) a large Midlands base there. As we all know after this date Ryanair stopped taking deliveries of new aircraft, but these are set to resume imminently.
With Monarch possibly in trouble, maybe this is an added incentive for them, they already fly to several Monarch destinations from BHX: ALC, BCN, FAO, FUE, LPA, IBZ, ACE, PMI, AGP & TFS. Further more MON destinations within the existing Ryanair network are not (yet) flown from BHX...
