Thanks again Scottie. It will be interesting to see if the momentum from the last quarter of 2023 when passengers figures were above those of 2019, and well ahead of 2022, continues into this year.

2020 saw us into Covid of course so it will be the comparison with 2019 again that will be meaningful, as well as with 2023.

It's a heck of a difference in movements between Friday/Sat/Mon and Tues/Wed. I imagine the ski flights account for a fair proportion. Jet 2 for example had 48 movements on Saturday but only 6 & 8 on Tuesday / Wednesday.

 

[mullion]

This is the quietest week of the year based on last year and should slowly improve over next month or so and of course Easter is early this year.
