    Everyone keeps on praising SPU but DBV seems like it's the quiet achiever. Really great for them and because they managed to snatch a fancy airline like AA which also increased flights! Bravo!

      It is the Eater Effect. Last Year airlines like Norwegian and Easyjet startet flight earlier to cater for Easter. April will be strong this year. DBV on the other hand secured many charter flights this year, from January with Agean having 1 aircraft stationed there with wich it operates daily up to 3 flights. This is evident in the numbers.

      So what you are saying is that there is no excuse for SPU's underperformance.

      Underperformance? You must be some sicko who believes things should only go up! What about sustainability of the environment? The number of pax at SPU is already too high for the local community!
