According to AirDB:
Restarted:Nottingham, East Midlands (EMA) to Bratislava, M. R. Stefanika (BTS)
Restarted:Nottingham, East Midlands to Prague, Ruzyne (PRG)
Restarted:Nottingham, East Midlands to Rimini, Miramare (RMI)
With these, and the other Summer routes still to be added, the 8th a/c may well be needed all week?

Just what EMA needs 
Ryanair increasing their 'power', when will regional airports realise that the 'all eggs in one basket' policy only benefits one party, and when they have had enough or decide to throw their toys out the pram, where are they then? Everyone seems determined to join the 'race to the bottom', to be fair the trend has already started and is very difficult to back out of now, they are being held to ransome as we all know, but there is very little they can do about it now.

I'd take the schedules with a pinch of salt - no doubt the times will be revised prior to S10. Some routes may get reversed and operate on non-based aircraft which could also resolve the situation.

Hi Potash,
It is unusual for me to defend Ryanair, but I must point out that the two departure dates you quote fall either side of Christmas. You are not comparing like with like in the example you have posted. Demand for the 23rd and 27th December is very different.
Cheers, SHED.

I suggest not, would only be a POTENTIAL problem if all flights were slot one, which they will not be. A lot of the scheduled LS flights depart mid morning, same for regional and the charter A/C willl not all operate same times (Libra will probably operate on VIK). EMA should worry about having enough business to make PAX operations worthwile, not worry about having too much, EMA is FAR from over capacity!
At least the 'turn EMA into a shopping centre with a few aircraft' project is full steam ahead!!

Runway Extension.
Finally permission was given on the runway extension by NW Leics CC last Night
Just Hope we get some new apron laid aswell we might need them
Since the DHL 767 have replaced the Md11s Noise levels have decreased. Which is good news and should help the airport against any flight restrictions between 11pm and 7am.....

"Shopping Centre ,I think not"
LOL, ok good point but I didnt say it was a good one It goes without saying that the industry is in very hard times indeed, however to have a situation whereby most announcements the Airport make are about Improved Duty Free facilities and new airside shopping and catering facilities probably says a lot. Correct me if I am wrong but the last Airline before Jet2 to announce EMA as a new base was 7 years ago (Ryanair in 2002), hard times or not that is a little sad. Hopefully better times ahead for an Airport with a lot to offer.

Both BHX5DME and I think we might have discovered a major flaw
in these figures.................................they don't add up.
The mass majority of the individual routes are down and when
added together they make about 412000!!!!
So I assume some number trouble at East Mids or someone
at the CAA has copied the figures incorrectly.
It looks more like 14% down!

Looking at the car (empty) parks i would have thought it was well down on last year and for sure November will be much worse with a lot of baby & Ryanair aircraft parked up nearly all day.
Just well really, the Ryanair stand 41 incident on Thursday would have been far worse had there been passengers boarding or a GPU attached, in the event just red faces

A gust of wind weathcocked it around from 090 to 230 degree's now it wasn't that windy, max about 40knts from SW
So a 40 tonne aircraft chocked, dry concrete and 40knts? no way!!
However if the park brake isn't set ermmmm?
