August passenger figures are on the CAA website at 559 843 which is 3% up on last August. Given that Sun Express, Wizz Air have cut back, it is good news I think.

I just can't understand why they had to extend the consultation in the first place, as there was plenty of time. It is no surprise that it takes so long to get things done in the UK.
