I wouldn't get too excited about this as a sign of Peel's commitment to DTV. Vic Brodrick, the Peel rep going to the Routes conference, is as far as I can make out the Commercial Director of Peel Airports Ltd, which doesn't own DTVA. He'll have been going anyway in order to represent Liverpool/Doncaster.

I see the new proposed Amsterdam service says J31 and Fokker 50s, which boneyard will they get these from?
Does Victor have the net in the big house?

Have we ever got any routes from the routes meeting.

Maybe that's where the Wizz route came from

If you hadnt noticed this snippet.

If you hadnt noticed the posting on the Europort thread, the word prospective routes doesnt sound too good from their main man.

Wizz did originate from Routes as well, I think Bristol and Brussels with Eastern also did and possibly a couple of the Ryanair routes.

So when he says
We want to open up the south side of the site for freight distribution
does that mean air freight, or just road? The wording looks rather ambiguous to me.

I've heard from more than one source that when Peel Investments (DTVA) Limited took over the airport from Peel Airports Limited, the south side was included in the deal and is now part of the airport again.

Of course that doesn't mean to say they will use said land for aviation-related development.

Before the sale I heard that Peel plc had been spooked by talk of an enquiry in parliament and that's why they gave the land back.

The current planning permission is for aviation related business only which could be anything. Having the runway, railway and roads is ideal.

Great!! we'll apply for funding for strategic utilities
Peel ask for goverment funds to put roads, drains, gas, and electric in on the south side
I'm with "Northbound" on this one. All this does is facilitate anyof the options available on the Southside, now or at any time in the future. My question is do these MP's who are attempting to join the band wagon really know as to what they are supporting ?
The press reports certainly don't appear to be avaition specific. Another potential U turn in proposals for development ? as ever this all seems to be more rhetoric without the publishing of a sound, practical and realistic business plan.

I wonder if they will revive Skylink. Still active on their website.

Feed back from routes - usual fluff.

The low cost carriers we met were looking at airports that don't already have strong links with Ryanair or Easyjet, so that put us in the frame
let the speculation begin...

Hope something comes of this and that MME can get a LHR route up and running (the airport management reckons it's vital).

A change of name to "Middlesbrough-Teesside" would help!

Peel DTV airport website

A fellow passenger arriving for a stop over on a KLM flight told me that Peel doesn't support some local businesses on the airport site.

There are 2 hotels within the airport grounds, but the DTV airport website doesnt even list the Spa hotel for some reason?

One of the other 2 hotels favoured by the Peel website is 10 miles away!

Durham Tees Valley Airport Hotels

Could it be that they are wanting the small local hotel to go under and get even more cheap land near the terminal to put drains in?

I had to laugh at the mention of the £6 tax on the Peel DTV website.
"Secure our future with the Passenger Facility Fee"!
What a load of cobblers Even Maggie Thatcher couldn't have come up with that one to tax the public!

So does one presume that these hotels have leases with DTV in respect of their properties ?
I'm not so sure that at least one of these hotels does have a lease with DTV.... ?
Another reason is that perhaps the hotel does not meet the airports standards However would this not be a case of "the pot calling the kettle black!"

Peel might own the St George Hotel.

Planning permission granted next to DTV site today.

As previously mentioned, the ex MOD site down the road from DTV in Eaglescliffe has today been given planning permission to build 850 homes, a nursing home, and shopping centre in Eaglescliffe, by Stockton Council. Peel wont be happy

The site is on the N.E. end of the runway at a range of about 1.5 miles. Cant see many people wanting a cargo centre running night flights over their heads.

Allens West - Durham Lane Eaglescliffe Stockton on Tees - Location

The ex mod site down the road is very small compared to the whole DTV site but still manages to plan for 850 houses.
According to this article its 115 acres.
NAMA working to raise value of land before sale

This is the developer who seems to have the midas touch as mentioned in an earlier thread. At least he bought the land without conning the councils to ontain free land and shares like some airport Empires we know....

BBC News - Old Eaglescliffe MoD site housing redevelopment plan on hold

Stockton council will be coining it in from the council tax generated as predicted.

Not to derail the conversation onto council tax but at 850 houses at between 1000-2000 per year council tax (as a ballpark figure) is anywhere from 850K GBP to 1.7mn plus whatever the tax is from the commercial property taxes and out of that they need to pay for road maintenance, street lighting costs, infrastructure and public services costs i can't imagine they are going to reap or coin in loads from this - plus will people migrate from within that councils boundaries i.e what will be the net gain to the area on population, the developers and central government are the bigger winners here. More worryingly is the proximity to DTV to bring it back on topic, that said other busier airports in the UK have more housing close to the airfield like Heathrow, London city, Gatwick to name a few.

Sounds like we have a case of Bart Simpson and Sideshow Bob.
