I don't think Coventry council can take all the blame for the CVT/BHX situation. Thomsonfly were already a BHX operator, why wasn't a blinding deal done for them to keep them?! Ok, the costs at Coventry were a fraction of that at BHX, but BHX could have done more.

I don't see how CVT is blocking or restricting access to BHX? Its a bit of healthy competition, thats all, and many airports around the country have, and deal with similar situations in a far more proactive manner than dear old BHX. Furthermore, to go back to the supermarket analogy, the BHX/CVT situation can't be compared to Tesco/Asda. More like Tesco and a cornershop! BHX has far, far bigger things to worry about than Coventry...
