I'm not sure you'll find any serious evidence to back up your claim that LBA is more expensive. Whatever it says on the airport website doesn't really apply in practice as airports do individual deals with airlines. These deals usually depend on the number of passengers an airline can get through the terminal doors not the number of times aircraft tyres kiss the runway.I’m sure airlines factor that in when looking at divert rates - I do wonder if that’s why LBA can be a bit dearer as airlines know. (Well that’s the accountant in me!). It be interesting to do a 12 month view when the kinder weather arrives and we’ve had a full summer schedule with hopefully fewer twists and turns as winter does seem to have been a bit bumpy!
