The fall in the £ is likely to mean that growth is likely to be in inbound visitors, likely to use a/c based on the continent. Of course the Chinese might come......
I think the Chinese coming is a matter of when and not if. If you look at manchester they've got Oman air starting next year and iraqi airways have just started again, also air china and Kuwait airways are rumoured to start next year. I don't know what we might see at Edinburgh next year but my point is that the current political and economic climate isn't as detrimental to the regional airports as it's often being made out to be.
