Enter the new BA routes to IBZ and PMI. Will it be THE END of LCY?!

Will hordes of scummy chavs straight off the estate invade the airport? Half drunk people everywhere, loud shorts, rowdy men in their early twenties, or young screaming kids....

I know it's just for the summer season. But still. Honestly. I fear the worst.
Have you been to IBZ ?

Appart from San Antonio (99% covered by the package holiday gang which operate flights from LGW, LTN and STN) which is where the chavs hang out and is a huge dump, the rest of the island including the superclubs are mega expensive which helps to price the chavs out of those places

I was there a couple of years ago on the radio 1 weekend and it was 50 euros to get in to Pascha and 15 euros for a Jack and Coke...

I think its safe to say that the chavs wont be flying out of LCY anytime soon
