Just looking at the BHX, MAN and LHR numbers to the Brussels airports, you can see the struggle for SN,
BHX BRU 2019 = average 11107 a month
BHX BRU 2023 = average 6012 a month
MAN BRU 2019 = average 20079 a month
MAN BRU 2023 = average 13405 a month
MAN CRL 2019 = average 15083 a month
MAN...
The problem for the regions is, without sounding too harsh, is the tourists are being brainwashed into visiting London or Edinburgh, like in your example about explaining where you from and getting s non-plussed reaction.
There is one post on another website that stated "Birmingham is...

So yesterday I missed a big bus accident near me. Had I been getting my normal bus, I would have see this "up close and personal". However, I had...
IAG have already indicated that they do see MAN as a potential profit growth centre,. If it were to be solely on the basis of feeding LHR then you would have seen GLA and EDI also feature. EI have stated that they can see a "manyfold" increase in services in coming years out of MAN.

It's a pity that the anna,aero site historic pages have been taken down when it was sold. One such article on 24th Jan 2017 allowed me to extract this info
MAN-BKK market size around 135,000 passengers a year
BHX-BKK market size around 45,000 passengers per year.
Back in 2015, there were still well over 100,000 passengers a year doing MAN-elsewhere-BKK. We had no Gulf Air, Hainan, Royal Jordanian, Ethiopian, Cathay. BHX-BKK has never been touted as a "needed" route or as a route that is surprisingly not served. Any TG route would attract a better...
Further ones gained overnight'
EZY150F / U22462 LIS-LTN G-UZHH
EZY68DF / U23212 FUE-EDI G-UZLP (arrived at 2334)
Diversions away per FR24
RYR893 FR893 EI-HHV went to STN (need to investigate this as that route NOC-MAN but it operated BGY-MSN
EZY2142 / U22142 AYT-MAN G-UZLD went to LYS
the EI ones will be down to having a batch of ATRs divert to Belfast City this morning after not getting into Dublin.
And strange to say it looks like the BHX-DUB Ryanair flight is diverting to MAN.
I'm going for 29.5 to 30m. If pinned to a number, I'd go at 29.8 million. This is at odds with what I had on another thread about how "easy" it would be to get to 30 million with the ways that could be achieved but it's still a good growth rate.
Back of my mind has BA22/BA21 with L1011s doing MAN-MUC-DXB-BKK-HKG in 1985 prior to the "upgrade" to BA 20/BA19 doing LHR-MAN-HKG on 747s. Back in the day, the CAA didn't do a comprehensive passenger number listing so no idea of numbers.
Also have alarm bells ringing on Air Europe operating...
