Story in the News and Star is a bit more conservative
News & Star | News | Passenger flights from Carlisle Airport edging closer, says Stobart Group
A few quotes from the Guardian story:
The weekly flight from Carlisle to Dublin will be operated by Stobart Air’s 48-seater ATR42-500 jet
Stobart's are 300's? (we'll ignore the jet bit...)
Tinkler said he expected about 20,000 people a year to fly between Carlisle and the US
20,000 pax a year is almost 400 a week...
