India and Pakistan are two destinations that have always been an inspiration for Luton Airport Management so don't hold your breath...
When you consider last weeks scheduled 777 service taking off from the intersection of taxiway B (as opposed to using the full length of runway available) on an easterly departure then I am sure there are many more medium to long haul routes viable that are yet to be discovered that do not necessitate long runways dependent on aircraft performance .
