Taking that one stage further......book with www.jet2.com and fly from LBA to 14 European destinations!!
I believe the original poster was making the point that easyJet's release of the Summer 2005 programme from LJLA demonstrates that they will be a significant Liverpool player for a long time to come.

Not unless LPL pulls its head out of its posterior and starts behaving like a proper international airport.
I'm eagerly awaiting the new routes for 2005 - will they be of the same calibre as the 2004 routes? If so, we can expect Limoges, Ghent and Aberdeen.......

Please tell us what Liverpool is doing wrong Slim20, because I've lost count over the last few weeks at how many new routes have come our way, AIR WALES, WIZZ AIR, RYANAIR, FLYBE,and of cause the backbone EASYJET, and the rumour of more to come.
Slim20 you got one thing right Liverpool - Aberdeen starts 1st Nov.

Just in case you hadn't noticed, Slim20, there already is a major international airport with direct daily intercontinental services less than an hour's drive along the motorway from Liverpool.
That's not Liverpool airport's market, and probably never will be. Liverpool has found a very fruitful niche with "lo-cost" operators and short to medium-haul freight .
This success story at Liverpool means that the population of the North-West (and beyond) now has extremely good access to a huge global route network served by a wide variety of airlines.
No other region of the UK is so well-served.

True Caslance, its great in Manchester having the choice of two international airports on our doorstep. As you haven't replied to requests Slim20, i guess it was it a throw away comment. We are intrigued but if you can't back it up, i suggest you keep prejudices to yourself. I believe Aer Lingus started services today at Liverpool to Dublin, i guess that too is what Slim20 is referring to.
Chiglet, i guess Caslance wasn't including the Southeast as a region, a fact or maybe a mistake that many make. It's a shame for Norwich and Luton, but London dominates there and is not considered to be regional.

At least three of the airports that you mention claim to be "London" airports, chiglet.
As symphonyangel says, most of us rough provincials don't think of the London area as a Region.

Just done a [very] quick check with the RAC planner [Circle ruler]
London Ashford [Lydd] to LHR 70 miles
London Kent Intl [Manston] to LHR 71 miles
Stansted and Luton to LHR 34 miles [av]
Birmingham to LHR 84 miles
Birmingham to Manch 68 miles
Yep, I agree Stansted and Luton [possibly] deserve the "London" title. Lydd and Manston do not. Norwich [and Cambridge] have a significant pax input and I think that they would describe themselves as "living in the[ B]South East of England[/B] I stand to be corrected of course

According to my Auto Route, Norwich is 113 miles from London, whereas Southampton (83 miles) and Bournemouth (109 miles) are closer, and these last two are probably nearer to 'south east England' than is Norwich.
But it is very subjective anyway, because some residents of Devon and Cornwall don't believe that Bristol is in south west England but is really an outer suburb of London (121 miles away).
All distances I have quoted are from the city centres to central London.
