Can't help but feel next year is going to be rather a struggle for the airport as a whole but in particular for Monarch. Every route they serve (save for Eilat) is served by other carriers, and with Thomas Cook arriving, easyJet expanding down to the canaries and Thomson increasing on some of their routes, Monarch will have to compete just about everywhere they fly. Also interesting to note that they're ending Rome as Vueling are rumoured to be starting and Lanzarote just as easyJet are commencing services.
