Firstly...
Why/how have some of you come up with the conclusion that STN is/was not Jet2's preferable London departure point?
They actually have a good history with STN from their days as Channel Express as well as the mail/cargo operation.

Folk in the London region will fly on their jollies from any of the London airports if it saves them a couple of hundred quid. Just look at Ryanair and how they manage to drum up demand on routes that no one else would ever imagine. If the price is right people will use it. We're not talking business/city routes here. It's bucket and spade.
