EMA is my nearest airport and I wish I could use it more, but I usually have to go from BHX because there are more flights from there to where I want to go. I wish we still had BMIbaby and easyJet, all we've now got is Ryanair and Flybe.
As for the name, I would rather it stayed East Midlands Airport. Before people can fly to it they need some routes to it. I did not like it called Nottingham and I hate the fact that no one's heard of Derby and everyone has heard of Nottingham thanks to Robin Hood and Brian Clough (who was our manager before Forest's) But next year when the Rams get promoted everyone will know where Derby is!
Merry Christmas.
