February does see higher load factors on the whole, partially due to the half term as pointed out.
I agree LTN will see more modest growth this year though bear in mind that load factors seem increasingly on the up right across the UK so even a small reduction in movements could still easily allow increased passenger numbers.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think movements are broadly similar if not slightly up on last summer, so should still be a modest but healthy increase in passenger numbers.
EasyJet and Wizz will predominantly drive the growth and will noticeably have a bigger share of the market bearing in mind no AtlasGlobal, Adria or La Compagnie this year plus the reductions from Ryanair.
