I spoke to a senior SEN manager a couple of years ago urging them to market SEN to European charter brokers and he said it was on his list of 'things to do'. I wonder if it was ever carried out.

For about seven years I was an Air Charter Broker myself so knew that clients normally didn't have any interest in the arrival airport for any given city as long as it enabled them to reach their destination venue by onward surface transport.
