Record passenger numbers for 2017 have been reported by Leeds Bradford airport despite the collapse of Monarch.
A total of 4,078,069 passengers used the Yorkshire airport, which has now seen three years of year-on-year growth.
But Leeds Bradford faces British Airways trimming back flights to London this year.
However, the airport will welcome Thomas Cook back this summer with services to Dalaman, Antalya and Palma.
August was the busiest month in 2017, with 524,707 passengers handled. The same month saw the airport record its busiest ever week, when more than 120,000 passengers flew out for the first time in its history.
Alicante was the top destination, with 328,133 people travelling to the Costa Blanca.
With 33,024 scheduled flights to more than 70 direct destinations, 2017 saw Flybe’s inaugural flight to Dusseldorf in October, Ryanair add the Polish city of Wroclaw, as well as Jet2.com increasing overall capacity and introducing a new route to La Rochelle.
A number of changes took place in 2017, with the airport announcing former Newcastle airport boss David Laws as chief executive and AMP Capital acquiring the business.
Laws said: “Despite some disappointing setbacks, including the collapse of Monarch and a reduction in our British Airways service, we now have the widest choice of flights available and will continue our approach to secure additional routes to ensure the people of Yorkshire have an airport to be proud of and are connected to the world.”
Leeds North West MP Alex Sobel said: “In an increasingly globalised world it is significant for us to have such a major transport hub in our local area.
“The airport’s success is shared with Leeds North West in the form of economic prosperity and employment opportunities and I hope that it continues to grow and prosper for many years to come.”
