Agree to a point and for what its worth, the following I believe could happen in the near term. Runway resurfacing due next year and will be done along with northern taxiway added, runway starter strip to the north will not happen immediately and may/may not be carried out some time in the future. Stands 1-5 will be realigned to accommodate A320 size before S18 as don't think a big job. Easyjet will take up the slack on Volotea's withdrawal and operate 2/3 per week from its summer seasonal base in PMI and to also test the water for future routes. I'm probably way off the mark but quite feasible that the above could happen!
