I don't really see that having trains stop at a station which cannot be used to enter the airport or putting on buses will help the airport. The car is King. The new(ish) exit from the A66 is excellent and the surrounding motorway and A road system is second to none. The winter Thomson schedule has proven it. Give us the destinations that we want and Teessiders and people from further afield will support the airport.
If the renaming of the airport is still open then the sooner they revert to the roadsigns and departure boards in most airports the better.
If Easyjet open a base at Teesside then I will do a Bernie Slaven.
