Airlines seem happy with the deal at LBA, they're filling the Aircraft and and the airport sees increasing year on year passenger numbers. LBA is in a good position with the incumbent carriers, better they look after them and the passengers by whatever means before the carriers realise there is better opportunity for unrestricted growth just down the road....oh but then DSA might have to take a gamble on losing TUI, Wizz and BE.
LBA will continue to be the unpopular choice airport of the region, LS, FR and MON aren't going anywhere soon.
