With the Pound barely worth a Euro and inflation forecast to rise,don't be too surprised to see if not a slump, but a slow down in bucket and spade destinations. The need for extra capacity is much more less likely in 2017. It might give a much needed breather to the terminals that have struggled at times to cope with demand this year.
Mr A Tis makes a fair point. In the overall picture though, it remains to be seen to what extent any fall or slow down in UK originating passengers is compensated by an increase in inbound tourism if the UK looks attractively cheaper. That won't be from foreign beach resorts in Spain and Portugal admittedly, but from other parts of Europe and further afield, maybe.
