Its not a Brussels/Charleroi Glasgow/Prestwick big area small area comparison. Liverpool and Merseyside is a decent sized market of it's own. People seem to think its merely a pawn for Manchester and no more. There probably is a market at MAN for WIZZ but not at LPL's expense and based on their geographical diaspora in regions with multiple airports they seem to favour either one or the other. In the NW its LPL at the moment, in the same way with LTN over STN in London, DSA over LBA in Yorkshire and GLA over EDI in Scotland. They are prepared to go for the cheaper option if it means they are still centrally located to a population base.
