Sure SEN will never be a new LCY but it has a niche and will serve that market well.
i totally agree with your comments. Stobarts rescued SEN and invested lots of money. As an ex ATCO there since i was a young sprog i never thought we would get a runway extension and a railway station right beside a new terminal. I often write here "wait and see" because all the speculation gets tedious. If half of Stobarts new routes are successful then they've done okay. Let's discuss it all again in November 2017.
