I honestly can't win with people on this forum, I just like to speculate about what could happen to the airport in the future, in my eyes there is nothing wrong with that. Some people are so unkind and sarcastic.

Anyway, I was looking into all of the routes that EZY launched in October 2014 and April-May 2015. Some of these routes had been operated already from the airport and some were brand new destinations. These included Copenhagen, Rome, Basel, Munich, Naples & Lyon. Hear are the provisional passengers numbers in 2015 (using CAA data);

Copenhagen - 408,868 (easyJet, Ryanair)
Rome - 110,956 (easyJet, Monarch)
Lyon - 86,499 (easyJet)
Basel/Mulhouse - 82,803 (easyJet)
Naples - 68,080 (easyJet, Monarch, Thomson)
Munich - 61,615 (easyJet)

These numbers look quite promising for a first full year of EZY ops (in conjunction with other airlines in some cases) and EZY could definitely expand and add frequencies on all of these routes. What surprised me was that Munich did quite well considering they also operate to MUC from STN & LGW.
